There have been guys that purchase two of the two pods and cut the ends off a little and mold the two together to make a four pillar. They have dash pods that hold three. And then there is the column pod that will hold one on top of the column. I believe your 92 has the newer style interior like a 93. The column is designed for the 94 and up but the 93 column is the same.

all it was was two single universal pods they screwed together, you could never even tell it was different pods unless you knew it was.

You can alway do this. I picked this pod up at the local autozone, it is for an 03-05 dodge and it almost fit perfectly, I just had to do some very minor sanding on the bottom to get it to conform to the dash right.
