Question Pillar Pods yay? neh?

So I always like the Idea of Pillar pods 1 for information and 2 cuz it's looks hella cool.

Here's a few details/ questions

I have an 06 SS V8 5.3
Is it do-able
And if so how and what would I hook it up to
Oh and where would I get one

Hey guys watch a video on utube to do fibergalsss and it seems pretty easy to make just cut a piece of wood out that the guages wood fit in and attach it to pillar then cover in fabric and then fiberglass looks pretty easy i think i seen it done on custom fiberglass boxes ...check out youtube and youll be amazed how easy it would be to make it but connecting it would be the hard part for me...unless i could hook it up to the guages i already have....you guys give me soooo many ideas it crazy

member Duderino has pillar pods on his 3.5, 06 monte. He's in Canada also. I think pillar pods are pretty cool, I'd like to get them for my 3.9.......

Says to 04 only but I'm pretty sure it will work for yours? I ordered one the other day.. Slowly starting my build if funds allow Gonna look odd in my monte tho cuz I'm only going to be running one aeroforce gauge for now.. maybe a dual setup later but the third will pry be a dummy gauge lol, maybe a fancy clock haha

Yeah I figured it wouldn't really be good for anything. I guess I wouldn't have anything for them to read.
