you drill two holes into the a pillar and then screw it in. thats it. no pillar pod comes with clips

Just a heads up,

When I installed my autometer full triple pillar pod, I did not use the one way plastic push clips in case one of the gauges broke and needed to be replaced. Instead I drilled about four holes into the the pillar pod and used some black screws to attach it to the existing plastic A-frame cover. Using screws also allows you to have more torque and bring the pillar pod up nice and tight to the existing A-frame cover so that you do not see any of the wiring through the front windshield.

Here a quick picture of how mine looks (This is the best pic I have. I don't have one showing the holes I drilled for the screws):

thanks, yea, i used two screws into the stock pillar, not the windshield frame. so i can still take it off with just a snap. only one guage is hooked up as of now, my a/f guage. thanks for ur reply. sorry for the ignorant post but i had a bitch of a time yesterday with the guage/weather/pod.
