Well for those of you who wanted to purchase a gauge pilar for your cars now is the chance, because you will save $5.00 off retail. I wanted to buy one but did not want to pay full price so I looked into a group buy. The ones I'm looking at are from Lotek. The link for the contour picture along with color options is here.

However heres pretty much the break down:
Colors: Med. Gray, Tan, Dark Blue, Denium Blue and Black (default) all colors with the exception of black are $7.99 extra.
Retail price is $44.99


Here is the copy of the email I received:
"The triple is already available at www.gaugepods.com. If you get 10 or
more orders we can give you a discount of $5.00 off each item."

I will note this, while the color is $7.99 extra you could just forget it and get the default color of black and then order a can of spray paint from Ford to match your interior color. I ordered one from Steve at Tousley Ford in Minnesota and it cost me $8.16 after the discount. It's a 13oz can so it's more then enough to paint the gauge pilar so if you also wanted to fix some scratches or paint something to match your interior or just have it around "just in case" its the way to go. FYI Midnight blue spray paint is part # M4JZ-19M547-1073H. The color is labeled as Alchemy, but it's midnight blue.

id be interested if it were more of a discount, Dosent really justify buying a A-piller with a 5 dollar discount when you need to spend 50+ bucks on Guages.

*If you do not agree with a Group Buy price or product, let it be. Do not post negative remarks. If the price is high, don't buy it. You don't like windshield washer lights? Don't buy them.

$5 off is better than nothing but i would ask them if you can raise the discount to maybe $10 off.

I just ordered mine. This is prob a waste of everyone's time because no ONE will have the money on time and [censored] will be stalled etc etc. I just got mine. love it, but if 5$ is preventing you from buying a gauge pod...you shouldn't be buying one!

be prepared to spend ~$160 to $200+ to fill it with some good gauges as well

oh, and the midnight blue (dark blue) from Lotek matches perfect
