73-87 Pillar Pods
« on: May 03, 2010, 11:03:21 AM »
I have been working on the mockup of pillar pods for our trucks.... again  And have finally found someone that will work with me on them.  I have gotten the angle mocked up and should be sending it out this week to the vendor to start on them.
I don't have a timeline for when they will be done but I plan to offer a dual gauge setup that attaches to the factory pillar first and then offer a triple version of the whole pillar once we can establish that it will be doable and profitable.

No ETA yet.  But he is definitley working on them as there is no one doing them for these trucks (and no one interested in doing them)
