You're only bet is to find a dealer that has some NOS around

Usually if you send them a pillar they'll make you one. The only reason they stopped would be because Ford stopped making them. I know a couple guys that did that for their Cobras.

They no longer make them? Darn. I was eyeing their three gauge pillar and almost bought one earlier this year. Brenspeed had the best price, but they show all four versions/colors out of stock. Guess I will skip that mod.

I reached out to Alan @ SOS - no dealers have them and he has no materials to make any more.

look for wrecks or market places on line

If available, you can get the double pillar and add one in the vent just below it

True, that is an alternative, but the double pillar versions were two of the four "Out of Stock" options I mentioned above.

The way I see it is if I don't get gauges setup, it is one less distraction while driving on the track , lol. Never mind that the gauges may give one more advanced notice of an issue arising while on the track. If I was doing endurance sessions, they would be a must. At this point, I am still learning in HPDE so my attention is often better suited looking through the windshield and learning to "feel" what the car is telling me rather than focusing on gauges.

I know this is not what you are looking for but its another option. Autometer makes this gauge set up and it flows pretty well with the dash lines. I bought an SOS 3-gauge dash pod a while back but didn't like the way it looked. I had four gauges to install and this only held three so I put my wideband in the dash right below it.







I still have the SOS dash pod if you want to go that route. Don't think I know where any of the mounting hardware is at but it shouldn't be that difficult screw it to the dash.

Well I'm glad you donated $20 instead of the $15 I asked because shipping was like $18 or $19, I can't remember. I have the tracking number at home if you want it but it should be there tomorrow. Packed it in a Christmas light box I had sitting around so it looks kinda odd. But the gauge pod cleaned up nice and I will keep an eye out for the mounting hardware as I straighten the garage this week. I'm sure if you give SOS a shout they might be able to help by sending it to you ar at least steering you in the right direction as far as what size bolts you need. If I remember correctly there were a couple of wing nuts that come with the pod.
