ONE of these days when I find a good deal, I'm gonna slap a SC on the stang. I'm gonna want to put a boost gauge, and an A/F gauge in the cabin so I can monitor them. Do they make aftermarket c-pillar (i think it's the c-pillar, the windshield one) panels for guages for verts? I have never seen them, except on coupes. Where can I find them?

I could not find one for the verts, only the coups. I ended up using the short one that pop rivets to the stock pillar.

Finding a-pillars for verts is pretty tough to do, especially if you're looking for a good fit and nice appearance. Most people (like mentioned above) have had to make something work.

I don't post about these much on Stangnet, but I make custom pillars for mustangs, even the verts. Since this is on topic, thought I'd show you the option I've created. Check my site in my sig if you want to see/learn more.

These were the result of a custom project that just grew into a small business that keeps getting bigger. A lot of people are switching to them, as the different styling is refreshing for most people:

theres only one company that makes them...lotek. heres their website http://www.gaugepods.com/ford.html They have the 3 gauge pillar which is better since its the whole pillar and not just the pod.

Right, but a vert has only A pillars. The rest is cloth top. And due to the hardtop format of the windows, there is no pillar behind the door. So the back window post would be the B pillar, if it had em.

Short hand, start from the front, that's the A pillar. Each pillar moving back is the next letter.
