installing gauge pillar mount on rhd

I'm trying to install a gauge pillar mount in my rhd fd and I'm just posting this to try to get some suggestions because I seem to have to bend it alittle to get it to fit. I'm wondering if the little screws will go deep enough to hold it in. Sorry for the stupid question just trying to make sure.

Thanks guys

Piece of **** man!what gauge holder do you have for your pillar?I have 2x60mm apexi el gauges on my rhd pillar that I installed.I got a greddy bipod and it came with the screws and fixings needed and was a perfect fit.Just run the gauge cables up the pillar,sit them through the holes,screw the gauge holder to the pillar and fit the gauges.All the holes were pre-drilled which made it much easier.I recently got a 3rd gauge and i'm moving my gauges to the centre speaker on the dash so i'm selling the gauge holder.If you're interested or want pics,pm me.

i have a greddy bi pod and when it got to me it was cracked so i fixed it. It was an easy fix. I didn't have to pull anything together just used some plastic weld. Mine is also not predrilled so i don't know exactly where i should drill it to make sure that it holds. I'm on a college budget but send some pics and i might see if i can get some money together

do you still have the pillar pod? is it the full pillar? or more like the universal ones where it is just a section of the pillar and you attach it to the existing plastic?
if you no longer have it do you have any pics from further back so i can see the whole thing?
and do you know where i can get 1?
