Question about Steve's A pillars


Recommended Posts

Posted

I have been watching alot of steves videos and i was wanting to know how the hell he keeps those A pillars stationary when he is beating up the block? I was looking at my pillars that have no glass, no components and they look like they could move a bit. I didnt know if there was some sort special fastener that he used to secure them. Any info on the topic is greatly appreciated. Thanks guys...

I don't know if you were looking for build log videos but I'm pretty sure he didn't make the ones in the hoe. But I am going to be making some soon and so far I am not planing on adding any extra screws to hold it in.

ya i think in his build he said RF made the pillars for him? IIRC however it was like 4-5 months ago when i saw the vids lol

Ray at Audio Innovations Made the pillars, Fosgate modded the cutouts to fit the new components that steve bought. they stay because theres some monster clips there

Posted

there are two plastic tabs on the part of the a-pillar that is flush with the dash

there is also a plastic pin in the groove of the a-pillar towards the top that gets pushed into a metal holder in the a-pillar on the car

the plastic pin gets worn down every time you take them out so steve's are magical if he has them still staying on just that

Wouldnt be thehoe92 without teh purple

Mine are much heavier than Steve's (1 6.5 and 4 tweets on each) and they are pretty stationary. THe metal clips are solid (even though i used some epoxy to uber-secure the clips to the plastic)
