A-pillar Gauge pod ?

Hey guys

I am looking to mount a Sun Super Mini tach in my 83 Camaro. Does anyone make an A-pillar gauge pod larger than 2" diameter? My tach is 2 1/4" diameter and I would really like to mount it on the A-pillar (cleaner look).

i know my pillars are 2 1/16 which is the only ones i've seen for thirdgen camaros. i know some models are also 2 5/8 as well. this of course wouldn't fit 2 1/4 without custom work. that's why i bought autometer guages so they would fit the pods.

I hae the LoTek ones and they are pretty small, but fit the Autometers too, same as Kandieds. I have never seen the big ones you are asking about.

Where did you get the 2 5/8 " pod from? I could always put some foam rubber or insulation around the outside of the tach to fit it in.

Thanks!
