A-Pillar Gauge Holders

Martin F · 18th February 2007, 11:17 PM

I was putting my gauges back in today and they are actually held on a Greddy A-Pillar cover.

But re-fitting the thing actually reiterated to me how poor it was

Has anybody actually managed to buy a complete replacement A-Pillar gauge holder that is good quality and fits all the way back to the B pillar trim. Most I see end short by about 5 - 10mm.

Mine ends about the same and it really winds me up. I also prefer not to see the screw going into the grab handle nut.

I thought that Baz had one which fitted very well. (At least he claimed it did when he was selling it)

Hi

We produced one over 3 years ago. They aren't the EBAY specials, though I beleive that some other Trader has ripped ours off since!! Priced at £85.00 + VAT retail, for either twin 52mm or twin 60mm, but we can do you guys a special deal. The quality is outstanding, and looks like OEM trim.

We sell the on the basis that if you're not entirely happy with it, we'll give you a refund, no quibbles.

If you're interested, please get in touch.

Regards

Chris

That's one hell of a statement to make, fair play Chris. I might be interested in getting one since my one is a few mill short and doesn't quite bend with the shape of the car, and that wasn't a cheap eBay one!

Assuming that the quality and fit is A1, and that they look like Toyota might have made them, I might be interested as well depending on the price.

I'd also be interested to know how they fix to the car as well as I'm trying to reduce the number of hacks on my car.

Martin F · 20th February 2007, 08:32 PM

I guess that may be these ones

Chris do you know if anybody on here has one of these?

How does it fix, ie. does it use the original trim clips or do you need to screw it.

Think you could have some interest here, how many of us would you need for us to get a group buy price?

suprarob · 21st February 2007, 12:21 AM

possible group buy if these are a proper fit then

Does it come with more gauge spaces avalibale?
Or is it a standard 2?

Hi

We are always interested in doing a group buy deal for you guys!!

I'm unsure on whether anyone on the board has one, as we have sold that many. We originally designed it over 4 years ago and have supplied some other traders, i.e. Envy etc, who may have passed them on as their own.
Our A pillars are not to be confused with a lot of other rubbish out there. I also know that they have been ripped off by M!ami GT, J@p Salon and probably more.

We supply Velcro with the A Pillar which is usually enough, but if we were to fit them we usually put a screw in, covered by a neat little black cap.

Regards

Chris
