Gage Pod ?

I have a 03 Lightning and want a two pod A pillar gage pod for a boost and a fuel pressure gage. I looked on the Jegs site and they list a half pillar but no full pillar pod for the 03 L. My questions are: How well do the half pillar pods fit? Do most of you have the full pillar or the half pillar pods? Whare can I find a full pillar pod for an 03?

I think the half pillar pods leave the O-***** handle in place. Id get the full if you can find it somewhere.

I dont think anyone makes one yet. You have to get one of the 99-01 full piller pods and do a little trimming to get it to fit near the top.

I just bought an Autometer full gauge pod from Summit. I'm putting in a mechanical boost and an electric feul pressure guage tomorrow. I'll post pics when I can. Having a hard time finding the right paint to match the interior plastic pieces.

rkoenig,

Check here for the paint that matches the interior...Tim actually lists three of them. I used the Ford paint with DupliColor plastic primer and the paint matches almost exactly. The only downside is that it was $14.50 from Ford, which does include tax!

Interior Paint

Hope that helps and again props to our Mr. Skelton for an informative web site!
