Full pilar gauge pod

For those who have not seen them, I got myself and my brother a full pillar gauge pod for christmas for my 79 and his 82. The pods are from lotec (gaugepods.com), I'm really happy with the quality and the way they look. On the website, they list them as 84-85 pods, but fit the 79-83 just fine without any triming. The only thing that is different is the part of the a pillar that meets at the bottom corner of the windshield and the dash. Instead of it going on top of the dash, it has to be tucked underneath.
Anyway, enough talk, here are pictures of the pod in my brother's 82

I got the '79-83 short-style since it was a lot cheaper. I haven't installed it yet, though. Mine is going to house the wideband and boost gauges.

We're pretty much doing the same thing, my 79 will be getting oil pressure and voltmeter. And for my brother's 82, we will be relocating his boost gauge and wideband to the pillar.
