Look What I Made
Well after emailing companies and giving up I decided to make my own pod since I have all the materials at work. Its has been costly im not gonna lie but the way its coming out is awesome.
Products used
1. LS/LT pillar $45 from GM (shop discount)
2. Glowshift gauge Universal pod $15 (cut it up)
3. Fiberglass cloth/Resin
4. Valvoline Plastic finishing Cream (plastic fillar)
5. Spies Hecter adhesion promotor
5. spies Hecter high build primer
6. SEM Texture Paint (To return OEM plastic Finish)
7. 150 grit, 320 grit, 400 grit sand paper.
8. Paint/Semi gloss Clear.
Heres a Pic from today, I finished all the sanding and primed it.
Ill try to update pics now and then but I can only work on it on weekends do to work, I wanted to make a triple pod but theres just not enough room. lol Probably gonna ditch the boost gauge for a AFR.

I had a pillar in my 2001 s10 Xtreme and it just made the truck look tough. I love looking through the front window of a vehicle that has a pillar installed...even a ricer Honda...lol. If you get rid of your single pod, keep me in mind. I'll find some kinda gauge to run in it.

Yup thats the only reason I made it was to run a Aeroforce, I may ditch the boost gauge though and get a AEM AFR.
you need to make some more.
