Default Gauge Pod on A Pillar

Anyone here have a gauge pod, preferably single, on their A pillar? Where did you get it? Do you have any pics? I'd like to put a scan gauge in, but want it to mount to my A-pillar without looking to bad. Anyone done this yet?

Thanks,
Chris

Just what I was looking for. Did that do away with the handle? And how hard was it to run the wiring. I'm going with a gauge that plugs into my OBDII, so it won't be as bad I'm guessing. Whered you get that? haha, sorry for the 20 questions.

Handle - Gone

Wiring - Easy With Autometer

Where I Got It? - I Can't Remember, I Found The Part Number and Google'd It, I Ended Up Buying It From Some Ma' N Pa' Shop In Kentucky.

What Are You Getting That Taps Into Your Diag Port?

I'm looking at getting the Interceptor AeroForce gauge. It basically scans through every parameter that your computer can read, and put it through the display. There is no part number listed for a Ram on their website, but they have it for a few other Dodge products. I sent the owner an e-mail seeing if he has one for us. I'm hoping he does, as I've read a few posts where the p/n's not listed and he's had them, or had them in development.

It's a gauge similar to teh DashHawk (which is my fall back), but fits in the gauge pillars like standard AutoMeter guages.

Thanks for the info guys, and I'll let you know when I hear back from him.

There are a billion places to buy pillar pods. Most of the CTD guys stick their gauges there; we normally run 2 or 3 though. Depending on the shape of the gauge you might be doing some searching.

Here is a whole **** load of different gauge mounts:
