I just bought one. After I install the triple pillar, will I still be able to remove the dash pad? I want to install some gauge overlays eventually w/ out the hassle. So if I wont be able to remove the dash w/ out taking the pillar off, I will wait to install the pillar pod!

 

I didn't have to remove the dash pad to install my overlays.

The pillar is a tight fit.. very tight. You might be able to wrestle the dashpad out from under it, but I would just remove the pillar just in case to prevent breaking something.

 

do they make one for non-ttop cars? i have a hardtop and the only option i think i have right now is going with a single and a dual and just trimming it up to make it look half-way decent.

 

When i ordered mine triple form autometer, there was ones for hardtops. i don't remember the part # bit there we 2 different ones for a hardtop and t-top.
I have never tried but you might be able to slip the dashpad off by pulling it out towards the back of the cr when it's installed. when i have had to take out my gauge cluster i have never had to remove the dash pad.

 

anyone have any pics of it installed in a car .

 

 

I want to get the overlay's from mcewen, but I guess I should do those first so that I don't have to worry about the pillar being in the way! I just want to get them in the car!

 

Pillar needs to be removed since it rests on the pad, at least it did on my 86,

 

Here are mine installed with the interior still not back together.
