Complete (A) piller triple gauge pod needed

He guy's I have been trying to locate a 3 gauge (A) piller pod for my maxima with no luck. I checked autometers website & a few other places but can't find a part# for it. I know there out there because I've seen them on some other maximas on cardomian (Affrilio's black max). What I need is the complete (A) piller piece, not a stick on or bolt on style. It would basically replace the entire plastic molding next to the windshield. I have about 8 Phantom Autometer gauges laying in the garage doing nothing, I figured it's time to put them to use. Any help would be great, also if any of you have some good ideals where I can mount some of my other gauges let me know. I'm always open to other opinions. Just x-nay on the ashtry gauge location. That's where my spare change goes? Thanks!!!!!

Does it look bad? I'd rather mount somewhere else if it's too noticable!

Hey, that looks pretty good actually. It almost looks 1 piece. I'm gonna have to pick that up. How long did it take you to receive it once you ordered it? Also, do you have any other good mounting spots? I was thinking of mounting a gauge directly above the driver side air vent. It's pretty flat there, only problem is cutting my dahboard Yikes! Another location I was thinking about was just under my stereo, My set up is just like the picture you posted. I was thinking about cutting the piece that divides the lower & upper pocket & fabing up a piece of plastic to hold 2 or 3 gauges if 3 will fit.
Hey, thanks again for the quick response. It's be buggin me all day, because I want to hook up my gauges, but I didn't want to rush into cuttin holes & stuff?

oh, I think it probably took them a week or something to ship to me, forgot actually how long but it wasnt long at all.

HKS makes a unit that holds 3 guages and fits in the dash and replaces that pocket. Its called a DIN panel or something. I seen it at www.optionsauto.com

edit- here it is

Thanks for the link, they got some cool sh_t there. I didn't find the brakcet that installs where the factory pocket is, but I did find some sngle cut rings that would work nicely for the super clean look if I decide on mounting to the dashboard. Thanks again friend
