Looking for lessons learned, thanks

I am installing a set of Auto meter Ultra-Lite gauges on the pillar this weekend. Also I am installing a DP Tuner chip. Everything looks very easy with the exception of the pillar. I would really hate to mount it to the stock pillar, then not be able to put it in the truck because I have to re-drill the holes, and if they are only off a 1/8" it will just be an elongated hole the retainer won't stay into.

ANY LESSONS LEARNED ABOUT THE COMPLETE INSTALATION PROCESS WOULD BE GREATLY APPRETIATED.

Oh, I have read 2-3 installation documents, just looking for something they might have missed when you did the nstall.

Thanks,
Ron

I let my pillar attached after taking the oh sh!t handle off. I just put the gauge pod up there, where I wanted it, and marked the holes with a sharpie and then took the pillar plastic off and drilled the holes. That was the easy part, lol. Good luck with your install
