A-pillar guage mount !?

[CAROLINA CUMMINS]

It doesn't look like it gives enough angle on the guages to see it good. It's the Dual Pillar Guage gizmo from Geno's. I just got it today, who's got it? do you have any problems seeing the guages? Also, What color code is the kinda dark grey for the interior??







Thanks, Steve

I have an Autometer brand double gage pod. I do not have any problems seeing the gages in day light or dark.



There are three different colors of gray used in the interior of the 93's. I can give you a DuPont number tomorrow of the one I used on mine. The number is about one shade off on the color. But that might be from age also.

Yeah, the angle could be better. But it’s not bad. The pod can be mounted about anywhere along the A-pillar. Just slide it up and down to find where it looks the best for you. Mine is mounted toward the bottom. Cant give you the paint code, mine is crimson. It took the dealer three tries to get it right.

Mine is mounted low also. The bottom cup touches the dash. They could have done a better job on the guage mounting angles, but it works out pretty good in the end. It's the Autometer. I went to the local body shop paint supply place and had them mix up a spray can. They found the interior color code in the book no problem.

I forgot about you CC. sorry.



Here is what the can has on it that I had mixed for my 93. I came in about one shade lighter than my was.

The color chips they had form the 93's didn't come close to my interior.



Here is a pic looking out over the hood. It won't take you long to get used to the position of the gages.
