I broke my A pillar pod while pulling it off to wire up my new cab lights. The metal clip has smoothed down the plastic piece on the pod itself, we decided to take the clip out and bend the tabs down a bit to get a better hold. That went alright but when I put the thing back together i ended up with a crumpled metal clip and busted plastic clip. Does anyone know where I can get a new A pillar?

Dealer, junk yard or GM parts direct.com
If your ready to install gauges the Autometer gauge pillar will run you about $55.00

Just go ask for a new clip, part #15154332 for the bag of 10 in my hand. Then if it doesn't hold, drill two small holes behind the clip (big enough to put zip ties through) and zip tie the clip to the pod. This works for me. Or just go to the parts counter at GM and pay $30 or so for a new pod. My mod works, and is much cheaper. I will try to find a picture and post if you want.

Just be sure to order the one without the speaker, with the speaker, it is over $100...

The dealer may ask for your vin. It would be better if they do, that way they won't screw up your order!

I used a 2 part epoxy and put it on there permanantly, that will work too. You can get that at home depot.
