Neither...

I have just recently spent about a week and a half molding a dual guage pod into the pillar on my car. The guage pod was for a 95-99 max and was way off. So I decided to mold it and then paint the whole thing back to the original color of my pillar. I am painting it tomorrow and will post pics if I get the time. Right now I am kindof busy trying to get everything ready to compete at World Import Challenge this weekend in Houston Tx.

If any of you guys out there are going to be in Houston for this show, let me know and I will be looking for you.

The 2K and 4th gen a-pillars are very similar. The only difference is that we have a tweeter on it. Did you cut a hole for the tweeter?

Similar, yes. But I don't think they're similar enough so that a 4th Gen pod will bolt right up to a 5th Gen pillar. If I'm wrong, let me know. I'd love to put a couple of gauges on my A-pillar.

I can temporarily borrow Jane's gauges, but it's going to be a lot of work.

Don't drive yourself crazy, Kev. I already checked with Autometer and they said that the 4th Gen pods won't fit on a 5th Gen A-pillar. But it would interesting to know just how far out of alignment they are.

Hahahaha!!! Just like how Shox.com said 4th gen Koni's won't fit and how Ground Control said their coilovers won't fit. Guess what happened?

Believe me, I hope I'm wrong about the 4th Gen Autometer pods not fitting a 5th Gen. Check it out if you can.

I just took a look at mine and I remember the 4th gen a pillars curved a bit differently. I'll take another look and compare when Jane gets back.
