A-pillar Gauge pods for S4 and S5

Does the A-pillar have a different profile between the S4's and S5's??

I need a gauge pod for my boost gauge... but the only one that I can find is by autometer- and it's listed in every catalog as being for the 86-89.
86-89??? WTF is that?? Wouldn't it change in 88, not 89??

Would this maybe fit with a little dremel work?
Thanks..
(PS- Anyone have on ethey want to sell? email me- bambam_x@hotmail.com )

They are made for 86-88's, but they can be modified with little work to fit the 89+ with the auto seatbelts, just get some sand paper or a heat gun and you'll be well on your way.

I have the autometer gauge pod in my 91' TII (auto belts) I had to dremel it a bit and I used some short black dry wall screws to hold it in. I also put a blue LED in my boost gauge it looks sweet the pointer glows.
