I've never installed one and am not familiar with that particular brand but 3M body panel tape (The stuff they use for side skirts) seems to work for things like that.

two screws or rivets at the top and two at the bottom.

if you get in an accident you don't want those flying at your face!

It should of came with some plastic screws or rivets and you should drill some holes on the corners of the pod through the original pillar and at the end you just snap the screws or rivets in the holes and thats it. I put my two gauge pod on monday. It holds it very good againt the original pillar. Oh by the way did you get the full pillar or the smaller pods.

I have the same one, and it flys off if I hit a hard enough bump. I know what your talking about, how it has no place to clip, or screw. After I get a 3rd gauge, and its all wired up, I am gonna try some silicone on it, and try to hold it up for a while, til it stays. If that doesnt work, Ill try something else. Good luck

edit - for now, I have it pressed up there, under the rubber pieces on the edge of the roof, plus I had toe headliner over part of it, keeping it in place for now. It wont move at all on me. I need to try to take a pic.

is it thin enough to mount it ontop of your existing pillar and to put two tap screws or rivet it to the existing pillar...much like what we do with a 2 gauge pillar pod? or am i way off

well u gotta remember that u need space in between the pod and the frame for all of that wiring. sounds like a good idea though ill try that.
