David,

Could you post up a pic of your gauges?

I saw snapon's gauges. I would like to see what the tinted ones look like.

I am still going back and forth on what ones to get.

Thanks

Just don't get tinted ones, I read that they are nearly impossible to see in sunlight. Bright gauges were never a issue for me. I always like to keep the dash lights on bright and the gauges match that pretty well.

oil pressure and H2O temp would be excelent choices.

I would have said boost but since you don't have a boost gauge allready i felt it was safe to assume you don't have a turbo.
