The pillar has been fabricated to not impede it's function. I use a new,from Nissan, pillar and graft, mould, finesse, texture, and dye the gauge pods to it so it fits like the factory item. It utilizes the original mounting hardware, installs just like the factory pillar. Behind the pillar is a clip, and a plastic tether. The factory plastic tether is located near the middle of the pillar and restricts the movement of the pillar to approximately 1", and the clip is at the top of the pillar, it releases when/if the airbag is deployed. The bottom of the pillar stays intact with the dash, the wiring should not cause any problems unless the person installing it deliberately tries to mess it up.

Others can attest to the fit, and function of the pillar. Actually, if you have any doubts, message or call Tony and the guys at Fast Intensions. Tony called me to tell me how blown away he is with the fit, finish, and functionality of my pillars (his team has installed a couple).

^^nice!!

I can attest to the pillar not impeding airbag.

1. When I pull off the pillar it comes off just like a stock one. The pods are angled so they do not interfere or even strike the dash when you remove the pillar

2. The pods are also low enough that when the airbag comes ripping out, the won't fly onto your face, instead they would actually stay pretty stationary as the top half flies off, causing the pillar to arc towards the floor.

I am beyond impressed with my pillar. The location and angle is perfect, discrete and accessible. If you only need 2 gauges and don't feels like tearing up the center dash or pulling it out. This is the ONLY way to go!

Turbo kit vendors should start working on packaging this with their kit. So essential to my setup!

Cheers!

still beyond impressed with this pillar deal ... one of these days I will get around to getting one

Thank you for the review FaceGlide!

And, the Turbo kit vendors have noticed :tup:

They better have! Monitoring is as important as the build itself. And hacking the dash gauges is a pain!

Well deserved bro!

nissan should source mr. gale for these awesome dual gauge pillars, and just put blanks in there like all the blanks we get in the car. :icon17: :ugh:

So do we just send you the gauge we want fitted and tell you what kind of A pillar we want? Or do we have to send you the pillar also?

You can send the gauge if you want, some forum members opt for that option. You get a slightly sleeker finished product as I can fabricate it to that specific gauge, and you don't need to worry about mounting the gauge as I look after all that. Without the gauge, I need to fabricate the pod with a little more wiggle room just to be safe. You wouldn't notice the difference between the two unless you had the two pillars sitting side by side.

I order new parts from Nissan, pillar, silver gauge trim. I have had a couple forum members ship their pillar to me, it's up to you.

Ok, I'll be PM'ng you by the end next week. How much is it for the single one?

$350+shipping for a Premium single pillar, that includes the silver gauge trim to match the factory triple gauges.

Trying something new.

gawd those are sexy

Wow, me like and me can't wait to get it LOL!!!!

I'm working hard to get yours finished next week. :tup:

[QUOTE Trying something new. QUOTE]

Molding your own ??? Great Idea !!! :happydance:

Those double gauge ones are awesome. Can't wait to see what you come up with on mine

Yours is going to need extra TLC. I hope to do it justice.

It was a test. I'll make a carbon fibre cover from the mould for shìts and giggles.

The biggest issue with making a mould of my custom pillar is everyone wants something different. I have been thinking of fabricating a simplified version of the double pillar to mould. It wouldn't have silver rings. I would still offer a premium version if anyone wants silver rings, or different sized gauges.

Fantastic gauges and quality
 

Buy with confidence guys! I have purchased both premium single and dual pillar pods, and the quality is nothing less than astonishing. These have a fantastic factory finish on them and just blend right in. The pictures don't do them justice. I just got commented on it today. I recently just got my car back so as to why I am replying so late Mr Galeforce :tup: keep up the good work

Good to see you finally got your car back. Nice numbers too!

Thank you for the review :tiphat:

Yeah but that's what your good at, TLC!

The Double Gauge one is ALL MINE :happydance:

And will be hosting an AutoMeter Digital Tach/Shift Light on top and giving a very good home to an AEM AFR/Boost Gauge on the bottom.

Please commence your drooling now ...
