Side pod gauges for dentsides

Hey guys, I have a 78 Ford F-150 and i was planning on buying this triple pod by Sunpro. Sunpro Triple Gauge Pod CP7549: Choose the best Gauge Pillar/Pod/Cluster at Advance Auto Parts

Now I talked to the guy on the phone because I wanted to make sure this would fit my truck and he said it would. But I am kind of doubting this because I know I saw a thread about how someone had to make their own mold for a pod for their gauges to go on the side pillar. I am just asking you guys if you think it would fit my truck because I do not want to buy it and it not end up fitting my truck. Thanks guys!!!

Plus ALL Sunpro gauges are Half Off at advance auto, so if you need some gauges or a nice tach go order one right now!!!

i thought rice burners are the only one that bought those. You have an awesome old style,man truck, keep it as one. Just messing with ya, i highly doubt that any company makes any that go right in. .

It is a generic universal part that takes "molding" to fit, per the description.

I'd be willing it would not fit without a bunch of work, and then might still not look right.

A "universal" part means it'll require modifications to fit your vehicle.

Unknowledgeable sales people will say almost anything to make a sale. It's a good thing you're showing skepticism.
