JR-Industries Pillar Pod C32/Slk32
We are looking for a C32/slk32 or those body styles in Minnnesota to use as a mock up for our pillar pods and gauges. Our shop is located in Eden Prairie close to winter park. I wouldn't mind paying someone or giving them a deal on our gauges and pillar thanks again. PM me for more details. Here is some of our work, can't wait to start building for you guys. We also have custom gauges to match for you AMG boys as well.

would you make custom gauges for the c32?
a c55 running around with these is pointless as they are NA. The only C55 interior mod is to replace that coupe air conditioning controls to the superior one found in the mighty C32.

Yeah it would just about be pointless for a C55. Not really a fan of them on a benz Even the gobbiest of Horsepower MB's do just fine without them. I guess if you want something to look at that moves allover the place the strip club is a good place to start.IDK i think it takes away from the overall cleanness of the AMG. But if you need it and got to have it i understand.

Not an AMG :(
But.......
Maybe I'm just getting old and / or simply wrong on this issue...... (and please correct me if I'm wrong!)
Doesn't this particular pillar gauge pod significantly obstruct your view out of a very important area (safety-wise) of the left windshield?
I've highlighted the area in red in the image below.
Perhaps it's just the angle at which the photo was taken, but in this view, this just seems to be a little on the dangerous side.

I didnt want the lag from the T-78, but it is not bad. The street porting helps. Cant wait to get it tuned next month. I'll post my mods in another thread under misc. Anyways lets keep on topic with the gauge pod and monster tach's. PM me if you want to know more on my Rx-7.

Pillar pods
First and foremost, I welcome any modifications and anyone who contributes to the aftermarket scene for our cars should be applauded.

I have played with the placement we used to have it closer to the windshield THAT WAS A PROBLEM, So we went back to the drawing board and put it right on the inside of the pillar. It is perfect no obstructions and no complaints from any of the crossfire members that have purchased from us.
The C class and SLK gauges are in the works same goes with the pillar. I am in the process of making some crossfire pillars but as soon as they are done it is on to you guys. I am yet to find a car for mock up, in either class, so hopefully some kind salesman would let me do some test fitting on his lot. Also mercedes headlinner is much easier to get then chrysler headlinner. We are able to offer matching fabric and wrapping both pillars as well as painting to match interior and exterior.
The gauges are available to order here are both sets. Our website is in the works (still in mock up) they should be on there shortly.

2 Questions
1. Would you sell it a one gauge pod only, i only care about boost.
2. Any chance you can post these what they look like back lit
I believe the SRT have green illumination where the AMG's have amber.
and
3. Make a custom gauge for C55 owners where it's needle points from useless to worthless to keep them occupied while driving. (jk)
