Some gauge info

Sent an email to Auto Meter to inquire about the availabilty of mounts for the 'balt.

We have great news. We are working on a dual and triple gauge "full
pillar" for the Cobalt. We should have them available in about 4 weeks.
Please check back in a couple weeks for an update and possibly a model
number.

Please also note that these A-pillar mounts will not work with the
Cobalt with the airbag on the Pillar.

Thank you,
Matt


Too bad I have the airbags.

same here oh well, maybe they'll make one of those stick on ones that look pretty good. Anyone know why they won't work with the airbag pillars? really, not just speculation

If I had to guess, the aftermarket pillar could possibly obstruct the airbag's operation.

I must have one.

Or prevent it from functioning entirely. It would have to be pretty damn secure to stop 200mph of air from forcing its way out, but I suppose it isn't impossible.

Or, maybe the airbag works anyway and having the pillar there means you'd be having a pillar with multiple pods slamming into your face during a crash, rather than an airbag.

I like them on the pillar but there are other places that they can go. I'd take Airbag over A-Pillar mount anyday...
