What about screws I would think pop rivets should work if you do them correctly, why are you sraying from the fiberglass that is the best way would look a lot better then pop rivets or screws.

Oh ya?????????????? Rivets and a Sharpie FTW!!!!!! Colored the tops of the rivets with a black sharpie you cant even tell.



Had to take the pillar out which is really easy to do once ya know where the clips are, you just kinda tug on it, and plop off it comes. One of these days ill mold it in with fiberglass and smooth it with bondo and color match it, but for now the rivets are good enough. The white goo around the bottom gauge is caulking to hold the gauge in place cause its loose for some reason, once its dry ill attack it with the sharpie.

I got mine at Pep Boys, it was an Autometer brand universal dual gauge pod. Ok so whats a good spray paint that I can get for cheap that will match the interior and adhere to plastic?

Just a random question, but what are the purpose of your gauges?

Looks like Voltage and a Wideband.
