Okay, so rather than start a new thread, we'll bump this back up. We have been working with who feel is the very best fabricator in Texas (the famous Rich-Z here in San Antonio) for some time now, on not only these gauge pods, but some other related products, which has put a delay on these. This is a MK4 a-pillar pod, but it'll give you an idea of what we're trying to do (NO SEAMS, NO CREASES, OEM +).
Just a little R&D sneak peak; these are the a-pillar pods we have been working on for quite a while now for vehicles with an *upholstered* a-pillar. What you see here is a factory OEM pillar with an aftermarket gauge pod molded (and riveted from the back for strength) that will then be professionally covered with exact-match material no different than your OEM cloth. No seams, no stitching, no wrinkles; a compete factory-correct pillar as if it came from the factory like this.
More deets soon to follow as they become available....
