    looking for 7 g pillar pods.

    I don't really like the universal ones, have anything to fit our cars?

    92-95 Civic pillar pods will work with little heat gun to shape it.

    I don't know if they are a real true fit, but I always see double or triple pillar pods "can't remember which one it was." advertised for our cars on ebay.

    Well probably true...and is most likely privately made. I havent seen a mainstream company like Autometer make guage pods specifically for 94-98 Galants.

    check ebay, there was an auction a few onths back for a complete replacement pillar, not just a stick on, for a 94-98 G, do a search.

    Friend gave me his eclipse dual pod apillar that fits rather nicely...but had to heat mold it to get it right. Got rid of it though and just mounted the gauges infront of the stock cluster in the right hand corner...easier for me to read them over there since im so used to looking at the stock gauges

    there's a custom triple pillar pod on ebay i see every once in a while, made specifically for the 7Gs, but it was over $70 after shipping. i bought the civic pod, and that thing needed so much work to fit, so i just sold it back on ebay. i then bought a triple pillar pod for a 94-01 acura integra and it fit sooooooo well. i just had to cut a little off the top. no molding required. just shove it in, cut a little off the top with a dremel, and you're good to go.

    That one should fit with minimal modification.

    I'm using a 94-01 2 pod add-on that kinda looks crappy. Oh well. haha

    ok so how do you install the wires behind there!? I never understood that? Maybe I am stupid on that one (shut up Matt). LOL And where do the gauges tap into? Do you tap the ecu or direct to the part...IE egt to oxygen sensor? (that is right right?) I know what I am trying to say but cant put it into words...hope you get my drift

    to get the wires back there, you have the pillar pod laying with the empty side up, with the gauges down, so you have full access to the hollow part of it. wire everything up from the dash with the pillar pod right there. then when ur done, just cram the bottom down in between the dash and pillar, and i had to put a screw at the top to hold it in.

    i tapped my a/f gauge at the o2 sensor, at one of the harnesses where the intake manifold is. just follow the o2 sensor up from the exhaust, and you'll have to try all 4 of the wires at the harness. getting to my ECU is impossible for me, so i have to go to the direct part.

    Not that o2 sensors are of great use anyway but...but if your gonna tap under the hood (just lazyness!) you gotta use shielded wire.
