Anyone that is running this pod having any issues with it? Mine just doesnt seem to want to stay attached at the top of the a pillar. Im not sure if maybe there is a fix for this or not.

Ive had mine on for about 8 months now and haven't had any problems

blake2010ss · 07-06-2014, 12:40 PM

I wonder if maybe I got a defective one then

Mine keeps doing the exact same thing I thought I was the only one with this problem. Mine does this now and again I have to pop it back in place, I'm not sure if the clip goes in all the way or what but it's very annoying.

Yea I tried putting some kind of glue on it to see if itd hold in a little better but hell it's helped it slide out easier.

I'm wondering I have 2 aem widebands, and I see both of your gauges are aem I wonder if they're to big causing the clip to not fully go into the slot.

I hope not cause I really don't wanna buy more, lol. The diameter is what it calls for but maybe its weight..no clue.

Maybe not the weight but the depth being the main problem hitting the pillar itself. If someone without problems could measure the face to the back so we can compare that to ours I'm sure that would answer a lot. And for the other guys with problems do you have one or both gauges from aem?

blake2010ss · 07-06-2014, 06:19 PM

I was just driving a little bit ago and it popped out on me again...so I angrily knocked the hell out of it back into place and so far it hasn't popped out... I don't expect it to last but its nice to see it in place for now lol

The factory clip that is transferred to the Autometer pod has to be installed just right or it will fit loose at the top. It is actually a teather and is functional for the side curtain airbag.
