i have my gauges almost done. i was just wondering how you drill the holes in the pod. directions say drill the four corners. isnt the windshield in the way. thanks give me some ideas.
I believe you gotta take the pillar cover off to drill the holes through it and the pod, then you insert the little plastic rivets.You have to drill a big hole in the stock pillar too, so that wires will be hidden....unless its a full pillar pod....I am not familiar with those.
actually now that i think about it, mines a full pillar 3 gauges and it tucks behind the other plastic trim so besides the wires i could get it to hold w/ out screw holes.
on my 2 gauger (on a vert, which the autometer pillar says does not fit, IIRC), i put it over the existing pillar. i put the bottom of the pod at the base of the old pillar, so wires are hidden anyhow (no drilling of the original pillar for wires). i got some real small sheetmetal screws and drilled them in (and painted the heads). you cant see them hardly. i held the pillar in place and drilled as straight as i could. then i drove (by hand with a stubby screwdriver) the screws in straight - it is plastic and mallable.
after puttin the two bottom ones in, it was held up. i put one top one in and called it good. try the bottom first and see how much you need the top ones (that are hard to drill).
