do anyone know if there is any pillars for mazda3 out there?? I know there is dash pod but when i ask my friend at Formular in Pacific Mall, he told me that for dash pod i need to buy some kind of dash piece for the STI and mount the dash pod on it then i can install the dash pod on the mazda3. It sounds so headache. But i prefer a pillar. Anyone with good advise?? or anyone have a pillar for sale??

I can only assume you are referring to module for aftermarket gauges? If so, I know Autometer sells some generic pillars (one, two or three pods) in a few popular colours.

If it were me, I wouldn't put them on the pillar, they'll attract a lot of the wrong attention (cops, thieves, etc.)

Have you checked eBay?

I just sold my dash pod last week on the FS forums here. CTA Patrique (TM3 Vendor) sells them... I paid $55 tax in, which is what i sold it for as well as I never installed it.

The pillar pod does sell for cheaper, but then you have to worry about the side airbags. That's pretty much the reason why I decided on going with the dash pod.

...... I just decided to sell it as I'm moving into a house and my car will be parked in the driveway more often now.
