I am looking at geting a pyro, boost, and tranny tremp gauge for the pillar. i have looked at autometer and some of them have caught my eye.

Please post up pics of your gauges. night time pics as well.

if anybody is running the automter ultra-lites, es, gs, or cobalt gauges, those pics would be greatly apreciated.

do you guys like the around the dial lighting with incadescent bulbs or LED's?


Thanks in advance.

 

i just looked at the glowshift gagues and they look bad ***. the only thing with those is the wiring seems like a lot of work. are the lighting on those gauges on whenever the key is turned on?

yes the glowshift gauges light up with the ingnition on, and no the wiring is simple as can be to do!!! snapon and myself have them he is the one with all the pics though. try lookin at his page he should have them on there

 

Thanks for the pics guys.

David, i watched the installation videos on glowshift's website and it does seem like it would be quite easy. the vids do a good job of explaining what needs to be done.

How do you like the glowshift gauges?

 

I had autometers before my glowshifts, and am happy with them. They give CLEAR diagrams for everything so anyone can do it, they look sharp too.

 

thanks snapon.

Is the brightness of the glowshifts an issue at all when it is dark? they don't look like they would be.

 

Idk about the glowshift but one nice thing my autometers have is the dimming feature. Helps out a ton late night or early morning when your still tired

 

buddy of mine IowanStraight6 just got his quad pod for the OBS looks MASSIVE should be pretty sweet he is going with some iso pro gauges sounds like they match OE

 

here 91dirty, what brand are the blue ones you got there, autometer or gloshift?

 

Autometer cobalts, I got them for the blue to match my stereo deck and now blue switches. I love em but a bit over priced IMO

 

i love them! i have the tinted 7 color gauges and they are great you can set them to any of the 7 colors or set them to scroll through them every couple seconds or set them to fade slowly into each other!

 

Thanks David.
I think i am going to go witht the glowshift 7 color series. i am not sure if i want the white face gauges or the black face. also the tinted ones vs the non-tinted. All these decisions. Damn.

I like the $$ of the glowshifts as well. they are better than autometer's price.

right now glowshift has $20 off orders of $125 until 10-17-11. i will probly wait a little while though.

 

I am diggin' the white face gauges. i like the white background during the day and then at night they just look bad ***.
