Are there gauge pods specific for A-Pillars with the Bose speaker? (there is a tweeter in the A-Pillar). Looking for triple gauge pod, is there a better location that's easy to read that isn't quite so obvious?

 

Yes there are pods specific for the speakers. Don't know of any other type pods that hold 3 guages. There are pods that hold one guage that fit over the steering column and there are pods that hold two guages that fit into the overhead console. Try Stylin or Auto Meter.

 

I really like these, but its only a 2 guage cluster.

stylin has a fiberglass dash cover that has 3 pods molded in above the radio

 

Pillar pod?

Is this the correct one for me then?

 

I like the brushed aluminum one with switches!
Though I really don't know what I could use the switches for.
Any ideas?

That seems to be the right one. The 99-current use the same ones other than the ones that come with the bose speakers and the ones without.
Looks like the one.
Though I would want one that is textured and color matched close to perfect to my other interior parts. Those look smooth with no texture and a bit too grey in color than the graphite grey GM uses.
If that's not a problem for you, then buy it.

Linda- Thats a slick looking setup, I like that a lot!

The autometer ones come in just black, I am not 100% sure if its textured or not though, but i think it is ...Jegs sells some vht plastic paint that is supposedly a perfect match, but I havent seen it in person.

 

The VHT was a perfect match for my beige interior. Mine was textured and easy to paint. Rough it up with a Scotch Brite or 600 grit, clean well, spray with the VHT and I got a nice looking job.

 

No one makes them color matched or what?? GM doesn't have that many color choices in the trucks on the pillars.
