Cobalt ss gauge pod
 

I just picked up a brand new RPD with pillar for $250 on ebay. I know this has been beaten up and I searched for answers and came up with alot of options but none what im looking for. I am looking for a gauge pod for the pillar that has the RPD and only ONE other hole. I want to keep the boost gauge for the Vacume. I have seen alot of configurations but not the RPD+1. I dont mind monitoring functions but I dont want my interior looking like I getting ready for a lunar expedition. Im open for some suggestions on where I can put the Boost gauge as well. I just want it to look clean and factory. Is anyone on here still Modifying the factory pillars? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Pretty sure zzp sells them

I think zzp only sells for 2 pods plus rpd and that's what I have. But then I wanted to be an astronaut ;) jk I really like my set up with the interceptors

So you have the RPD and the interceptors? Doesnt the RPD have most of the functions? I thought about sticking an oil pressure gauge in the pod if I had to get the one from ZZP but again, i did read that there is a person or 2 who can modify/remold/retro fit your existing pillar.

Well yes the rpd will show lots of info but I don't want to be changing screen to be looking at other stuff. And the interceptors have way more info to show than you might think they are great piece just from one point of being able to read check engine codes and clearing codes

Ahhh. I see. I didnt know you could clear codes from them. Thats pretty cool. If I have to have a gauge pod with 2 plus Rpd maybe ill get one of those. Im not totally against having the extra gauge. I just didnt know what I can stick in there and how to keep it looking factory clean and not aftermarket cluttered. I know I def need some kind of engine monitor with the tune.

are you sure you can just add that rpd to your car? plug and play?

all he wants is the rpd pillar with one more slot for the stock boost gauge. But yup the interceptors are a nice little gauge for sure I would recommend them to anyone and I think they look great on the car

yeah, there is a bunch of write ups on it. I have an 09 so it will work in english. I ordered the 8 pin connector, all that has to be done is a few splices. I was thinking about a dashdaq but hated the idea of sticking it to my windshield. I got such a good deal on the RPD I couldnt pass it up. They cannot be bought anymore from GM. Gm has to order them through the manufacture and the price is about $550. I got it new for $250 plus $100 for the connector. I like the look of the factory boost gauge and it reads vacuum as well which is why I wanted to keep it. Plus its already wired for the car.

actually....I read this.

"I just picked up a brand new RPD with pillar for $250 on ebay"

means, he got the RPD and pillar...

what im saying is, I read, you cant just plug and play RPD into a NON RPD car?

unless im reading wrong?

ah ok, sounds good, seems as you did your homework, good job.

I think I will go with the interceptor. Im new to this so I have to take advice from people that have been there before me:cssNET:

Yup you can either go dual or just one. Make sure you get the correct one tho they have to versions CN series and the other I can't remember lol

I got the dual setup in my base.

there is the pt series and the cn series.

Yup that's it pt and cn I know them as lsj=pt and lnf=cn

ok, so i need the CN one. Next would be does anyone know if there is a factory matched interior spray paint. For some reason or another my pillars are the ebony color. I was looking and see that most pillars are the greyish color. Maybe the guy before me sprayed it. I think it looks better. Also the RPD wont stand out as much.

I painted mine all black it's less noticeable
