ok um i was just wondering.. when test fitting... did you have to remove anything to get the pillar to fit?

cause i just quickly tried it to see if it fit but it was WWWAAAYYY off... seemed impossible to put in unless i removed a-pillar and mounted it first...

also... none of my 52mm gauges fit??? i guess i gotta sand a bit off from each hole... but then how do you get them into the 2nd and 3rd spot? cause mine are about 57mm deep and when i try to put it in... the holder above it is in the way...

gaugepods.com? No, real lotek come from the actual site. That one might be real lotek but i really dont know and it would be hard to find out. As for the gauges, you put them in the pillar pod before you mount the pillar. Run the wires down behind the dash before you totally screw in the pillar so that you make sure that you dont cut into or pinch any wires. Now to mount the pillar, you just have to wiggle it in there and make it fit

well.. when u go 2 the 6gc parts database for the lotek pillar, gaugepods.com is where the lotek link takes u. and since they r hving a gb @ mr2oc from the same place i would think it's legit

n also, i can't put the actual gauge into the holder cause as the pic shows, for the 2nd and 3rd holders, the gauge keeps hitting the holder above it... i thought all gauges would be like a universal depth or sumthin

i guess i could try and wiggle the pillar in some more tmr where there's more light outside cause it didn't seem like it would fit @ all w/o removing things
