Hi

Im new to this forum and this is my first post. Pleace bear with me on the spelling part... im from Norway :-D

Im a happy owner of a 2004 Lightning truck witch is one of the most known truck in Norway as the carseen goes... I v bougt this truck from previus owner that did all the mods... This winter ill do some of my own mods and one of those is to mount a A-pillar pod for 3 gauges... But they all say i cant on the 04modell? Because of the handle? Cant i remove this and get one anyway ore is it not possible at all on this model?

Welcome to the site.

I tried the Lotek 3 gauge with removing the handle and it will not fit the 03-04. I have the 1 gauge pillar pod from them that retains the grab handle.

I'm not sure about the Autometer set up.


MORE PICS WITH THE LADIES PLEASE!

Autometer dosent have anything either... :shrug: . So the one gauge setup from lotek is ok on the 04? This will at least give me some A\f readings :)

And for the ladys.... Just go into my webpage www.grombil.com and "Grombil Babes" :)... :thumbsup: There are many more coming in the future :)

I have a dual autometer pod on my 02 i just had to remove the handel and the pod just went over the original pilar. But i dont know if the 03-04's are different.

I just took about 2" off the top of my lotek pod with a saw and then sanded the rough edges and repainted it. It doesn't exactly look stock, but it isn't noticible either. Also, the screw holes on the lotek pod didn't like up with anything on my a-pillar and I had to drill new holes.

Thanks...

So it is possible to buy a 3pod item and customfit it a bit. Im not fan of gaps and i want a snug fit.... I have seen others that has made a pod on the dash... Some on top of the radio custom fittet... I think the "swede" has this made himself.

If anyone have the solution pleace shout out. SOme mentions that lotek made some 3pods for the 04? Do you have pictures?

Off topic: I like your ni... In Norway "Dusten" means something like "THe jerk".... Not that you are ajerk... I just think its funny to see words mixing different contrys :)
