if you have a wideband go a/f instead of volt if not those should work fine

I went with ProPods A-Pillar 2 Gauge Pod. It's the only 03-05 pillar pod I could find that only had only two gauges - I find having a third is just too high and starts to obstruct vision. No complaints, its a great product!

when you guys say oil, do you mean oil temp, or pressure? which is better?

Its usually taken as oil pressure. Not alot of people on here have a crazy enough engine that warrents a gauge to keep an eye on oil temp. But oil pressure is a good thing to keep an eye on(even on a stock engine). It can help you see if your oil pump is failling before massive internal damage is done.

ah, very good to know! anyone here have a fuel pressure guage? i'm guessing since its not mentioned on here, its better to get a wideband, and afr guage...yea...i'm as smart as einstien...

I think every engine should have a oil temp gauge. I will never not have one on a car with mods. Almost rather have it then oil pressure.

Why? I'm not trying to start anything, but I am just curious. Is it to help gauge the "life" of the oil?

Go with the Pro Pod gauge holder fit and finish are really good,They make a 2 and 3 pod one..Here is a pic of mine on a 05 Sunfire..Had it painted to match the interior..



And at night with the red leds from Autometer..

nice! thanks for the pics guys. i will probably go with the 2 gauge one. as was said the 3 gauge seems a bit far up to look at. and is the propod one a direct full replacement? whats the webside for them as well

The pro pod one lays over the factory piller...What I did to attach it was ....I ruffed up the factory piller and the inside of the pro pod holder,Use a good ruff sand paper for this,Then wipe clean with wax and grease remover,I then added clear silicon to the factory piller then attached the pro pod overlay..Once that was done I taped the 2 together and let it dry for 2 full days,Removed tape had it painted to match the interior..By doing it this way you dont need to use the plastic plugs that come with it...
