Looking for best matching 2010-2013 Camaro Pillar Dual Gauge Pod. I know there is a lot of company's out there that make them and they all say theirs is the best but figured I would get advice from here before buying and being disappointed.

Aeroforce makes some awesome gauges, and they have their own gauge pod, but it is not a pillar design, it is a side by side design that mounts to the dash.
I know its not exactly what you were asking for but it might be worth checking out.

I like yours too and was thinging of getting a pillar pod for oil pressure and another, in lieu of putting the stock gauges in my 1SS because I kinda like having that spot for sunglasses, pen, and other now.

Bo White, would you know the stock number for the one you are using? The one on Summit says "12214" and shows three pods (I don't want 3), but the description says "dual". Thanks.

I'm a big fan of the Autometer dual pods. I have one in my own camaro and have installed many! You don't have to paint it or anything, it's a very close match.

That's the correct part number. Autometer never has pictures of their pillar pods that show what they actually are

It is in fact a dual pod.

The ADM kit is really slick but its fairly expensive.

I just got my auto meter today in the email. I took it out to the car to check the look out. And i love how close the color was for the price at got it for....

hard to go wrong with the Autometer Pod. Installs in factory location and fits great.

Nice.. just ordered mine. Went with VEI Gauges. One with boost and afr and the other is fuel and intake temp. Also just put on my intake.

2012InfernoSS · 02-12-2014, 07:31 PM

I got the autometer pod, it seems to fit good.. Matches the dash but don't match the passenger side, cant see myself looking at both at the same time so it doesent bother me..

Gauges are the prosport evo's, they match the red on my speedo and the red ambit lighting on the door panels ( gauges still have the plastic film on them )
