Pillar Pods?

Where would one be able to find a pillar pod for our trucks or is this something that is going to be custom made

You can find them on E-bay, but I have a black triple gauge you can have for the cost of shipping if you want it.

what year is your truck? if it isn't OBS then nothing is a "direct fit". takes a little custom cutting.

I just bought a triple pillar pod for my 88 E250, and I was assured it'd fit directly on my van. Total BS. I'll be lucky if I can come close to making mine fit with massive customization.

^^^that's what i am talking about. i have never seen any pods other than OBS and up trucks. i have heard that you pretty much have to cut off the top and bottom of the obs pod to use it on brick nose truck.

There are pictures in my gallery of a 92-97 pillar pod in my 88 F250. The top fits like a glove. The bottom needed trimming. It wasn't really that bad though.

Just need to trim off the bottom couple inches and a OBS pod will fit on a bricknose.

Can also just get the universal pods and mount them up as well
