Ford Racing Gauge Pod Install

Compliments of myFordFocus.com Forum Member: RandyRyanRacing

Tools Required:

• 3/8" Drill Bit and Drill
• Hobby Knife
• Two or more Hands
• Optional: Paint and prep materials

Instructions:(click image to enlarge)

1. Paint Gauge Pod if desired. Insure you use the proper paint and prep the Pod properly before doing so. Allow Pillar to dry for 24hrs. I prefer the shipped black with the Ford Racing Logo. I did not paint mine.
2. Remove Driveršs Side A-Pillar molding: Clips hold the A-Pillar molding to the car. Pull but pull gently. The parts are plastic. You may have to remove the H-Pillar molding also. This is the molding where the top of the seat belt disappears in to.
3. Once removed align the Gauge Pod into the proper molded position by sliding up and down on the A-Pillar itself. The Pod id molded to fit the focus towards the bottom. It will stop sliding down once into position. Once in position, clamp the Pod to the A-Pillar molding.
4. Drill 4 ­ 3/8" holes, one on each corner of the molding. This is where the Pod will attach to the molding itself.
5. Cut a 7/8" circle on the lower bottom A-Pillar where the Gauge Pod will cover. This is for your wire and hose access.
6. Push the 4 provided one-way taps through the drilled holes. The Pod is now installed on the A-Pillar Molding.
7. Reinstall A-Pillar assembly as removed. Check to make sure all clamps are positioned properly. Install toward dash board first and work your way back to the H-Pillar.
8. Caution: At the bottom of the A-Pillar (towards the dashboard), insure you insert the alignment shaft properly. If this step is missed, the A-Pillar will not align correctly and that piece may brake.
