Mine came with it. I actually like the placement and mostly use it for the speedo since the regular speedo is hard to read. A nice clear readout of speed. The other info is nice to have though when checking out hp, torque and more.

I don't like the rubber mat but it can be made to stay flat with adhesive and I do miss the storage.

Price on my sticker was $295.

The money it would have cost for a new dash was never going to happen for so few vehicles. It would have killed the whole thing.

I still believe they could have made a housing that would have bolted somewhere on the dash that would have kept the storage and saved cost.

I have the RPD and I love it! But I wish I had oil pressure too. Does any one know if I could put the stock analog gauge pod on the pillar in and run an oil pressure gauge in the boost gauge spot????

It would be cool to get a dual pillar pod.

I love the RCD but it just looked wrong in the SS. I have just the pillar boost gauge.

You can adapt the Aeroforce gauge to do oil pressure too. You install the sender and run the wire in to the pillar. It is not very hard.

It already dose oil temp.

The guage is great, but GMPD should have put it on the pillar like they did with the '09 Cobalt SS.
