pillar guages

I want to get a pillar guage pod for my eclipse. I want to be able to see boost pressure (psi), oil pressure, and fuel pressure. I was wondering if anyone knew the best places to get these items for relatively cheap. I don't want crap though. I've seen some of those "ebay" pods and guages on peoples cars and they look cheap as hell. Thanks for your help.

Autometer makes really nice full pillar triple pods. I have one in my car and it looks fine. I also have autometer ultra-lite gauges.

Re: pillar guages

Does the autometer a-pillar replace the whole pillar, or do you have to glue it onto the stock one?

Got these at PepBoys. I know, how rice can you get? But they look good. I did want smoked ones though. These were like 25-30 a piece.

Re: pillar guages

The Autometer 3 gauge must be diffrent then the dual gauge, because my full 2pod Aermotive goes overtop the stock vinal peice.

Re: pillar guages

Almost all 2-gauge pods are just an overlay. The 3 slots will be the whole A-pillar.

I have this to hold my boost gauge - http://www.boostcontroller.com/index.php?item=40

This is what it looks like in my car - http://www.clipsekid99.com/interior/int6.jpg

I guess there would be a way so you wouldn't see the wires and lines comming out the back if you drill a hole in the dash and run it like that. Right now, it's being held on by double sided tape, but I'm going to superglue it on cause it is vibrating a little.
