Autometer "factory match Ford" gauges...
They look slick and I'd like the low light and it would be cool to match the stock gauge look. Anyone used these? I'm trying to justify the extra $150+/- its gonna run me for my pillar gauges. pics would be great if anyone has them. Thanks guys!

I saw a set in a magazine recently i think and they did look nice. If I can find it I'll post up the info. The numbers were the same "font" and so it looked really matched. Not sure if it is worth an extra 150, but that's your call.

just in case you wanted to trick people into thinking a pillar gauges came stock. google bought up the autometer site where you can see them in night time setting too. looks sweet.

Yup, that's them. I cannot understand why the trans temp gauge is twice as much as the automater sport comp? That seems extrememe to me seeing how the other gauges are $20 +/- difference... I'm hung up on that right now
