Looking for recomendation on a shop to install gauges

[Ken B]

I'm looking for a recomendation on a shop to install EGT, Boost and Tran. Temp gauges and an A pillar post w/tweeter. Any shops worth recomending in the Seattle area... or Pacific Northwest? Should I talk to Cummins Northwest?

Secondly, is there a supplier who offers an A pillar post in the stock 2001 Agate color?

Thirdly... any recomendations on a package deal from anyone? The Autometer gauges look very nice.

Thanks in advance for the help, -Ken

KenB, if you were not in a hurry, wait until the next NW Bomber event and we could help you install them and save your cash for more goodies. There are many great people in the NW that would be willing to help, including me.

NW BOMBers would be happy to help... although we have not planned our next event, it will probably be in early june or so.

We have installed many gauges for others. If you can not wait, try the Power Shop in Enumclaw. I have been very happy with their work, and so has many others around here. They have an 800 number but I am at work and forget it.

I have never heard of anybody making the "A" pillar pre painted. Its a good idea, but i dont think you will find one. Good luck

Ken, a couple of suggstions for you to consider prior to the actual A-pillar gauges' installation.
(a)order yourself the appropriate A-pillar mount for your gauges and then take along a piece of your interior trim to a good local paint shop to get a good match on your own agate trim - beforehand...
(b) Fitting the gauges into the pods may require a little reaming out of the openings to ensure a comfortable, snug fit.
(c)Don't forget that the A-pillar gauge mount can come with or without the tweeter mount - depending on your current configuration.

Good luck!

You can get the interior Agate color in a spray can from your local Dodge Parts Dept. Color code is LAZ.

Yes, you can get the interior spray paint from your dealer, but it is not a perfect match. I used it, and it was close enough... also used it on my cup smoothie from Genos.

If you want an exact match, take something in to get it matched, as in the post above.

I got my gauges and A-pillar mount from Diesel Injection Service. They had awesome prices sent it right to me. Plus my wife dropped my pyrometer and dented the bezel, she bawled her head off, but I called DIS they set me up with Autometer and I am getting the bezel fixed !! Great people and I have received great service #ad

what ever happened to the REAL "A" pillar REPLACEMENT that someone was working on? as i recall the ones on the market now are "covers. "

 

[Evan A. Beck]

They have always been covers, there have not been any snap-in replacements. If there were, they would be pretty expensive. Hopefully someone will make them soon... When painted the a-pillar covers look excellent, just like stock.
