Are dual gauge A pillars paintable. Or better yet can you buy them already in the interior color (mine is gray). I'd like the factory look. Thinking of putting a trans temp gauge and am WIDE OPEN to suggestions for the other gauge. ( If they made single gauge A pillars, I would buy that)

Thanks

I believe they all come in black, at least my auto meter did.
You can buy aresol interior paint usually at a good paint shop, to match your interior. I went with trany temp and oil pressure, never trusted the factory oil pressure gauges.

Anybody have any pictures of an A pillar installed. My buddy, who owns a bumper to bumper store, recommended Autometer gauges/A pillar.

Are autometer good and do they illuminate at night?

thanks

Auto meter guages are some of the best guages out there.
We use them on all our race applications.

Yes they illuminate

They do. Go to Diesel Injestion Service.

Check out the cool replacement for the stock gauge-cluster panel that will hold two gauges. Very cool!

If I were going with just two...(I may)...then I would choose tranny temp and voltage. But since I can't decide...when I do finally do my guages I'll more than likely go with 3 and add the Oil Pressure.
