A picture would help. I just want to see one finished, so I can do mine this weekend, maybe. No rush on the pic, I surf this site at work all day because if I didn't, I had would have to actually work. I gotta crash now. Thanks man. Later

Looks pretty good. Do you know if those push pins can be bought at a hardware store or something? I pretty much tore mine up getting the single pod off yesterday.

Found them at Ace Hardware for .25 each. A little bigger than I wanted but I'm going to paint them to match anyway.

I have the full pillar cover but haven't installed it yet and dont' find any instructions so I"m wondering .... do I need those pins at all? I put the cover on for a trial fit and it seems to not need the pins BUT that was a dry run w/no guage weight to perhaps pull the cover off the pillar.

Does the full 3 guage cover need the pins and if so do you drill a pilot hole?

Also... I notice that the pillar cover has a 4th hole, about the size of a guage (but I haven't measured it) on the windshield side towards the bottom. I have no idea why that hole exists. Any ideas?

That extra hole you are talking about is for the bose sound system equipped trucks so send it back and get the regular one since your truck didnt come with that option. Yes you need the pins and yes drill pilots holes the pins are jsut cheezy plastic. I didnt put any pins near the bottom cause it doesnt need it but atleast put two at the very top near the headliner and put the rest where you feel they are needed.

Finally got mine in. I haven't hooked up the Fuel Pressure or Air/Fuel gauges yet. I was just making sure it would all go together correct. I will be running the wires through the firewall in the same hole as the boost gauge tubing. Whadaya think?
