Not gonna work. You'll need to custom fabricate your entire a-pillar. Take the one you have now, and gauge housings... dremel and bondo... paint and you're good to go.

The generic single gauge pod from here fit pretty well with a small gap at the end that I filled with silicone seal.

ok one option is to take the pods that comes w the sensors and bondo them onto the a pillar. what if the pods that come w each gauge looks different ? then my a pillar would look really awkard ?

another option is to buy three individual pods for the a pillar.

are those two pretty much the only options i have for the gen4 because i read somewhere that autometer makes an a pillar pods for the gen4 and something about the 92-94 mustang pods bein able to fit ?

thanks a lot,
d

Option 3: Buy a double or triple gauge pod setup (used if possible... check local car forums). Bondo fab it to the a-pillar (because your going to have to anyways). Clean it up.... sand, primer, paint, done. Just be sure all the gauges you buy are the same size. Plan out WHICH gauges you want before you start this project.

You should put your gauges inside the Dashboard surrounding like someone else did on here. Fiberglass and bondo and a little paint. Looked really good too
