Jeff that is great and I'm jealous. I want(need) a three gauge set for my SD diesel. I need pyro(egt), tranny temp, and boost. Oh well, one of these days.

Thanks guys! Let me tell ya they were a pain in the butt to install. If i ever have a short in them it will be a bigger pain cause of all the wiring behind the pod!! I'm glad they are in and i dont have to jack with them again even though i still have the oil pressure to hook up and it dont look like fun!! Anyways i couldnt pass up the deal my parts man gave me on the pod and gauges, so thats why i got what i did!!Again thanks for the comments on the new mod!!

I wouldnt want to install anyone elses. Those wre a B(*$% to get in straight and to wire up!! I'd do it for a small fee though!! Ive had to take it apart several times to fix wires that come off the terminals and i had wired one gauge backwards!! The pod came black and i special ordered the tan paint from a company to match the inside color!! Cant even tell it was black by the looks of the pic!!
But really thanks guys for the comments about the install, kinda proud of myself for doing it. Just have left the oil pressure gauge to hook up but its rainin now so that looks like that is off for awhile. I gotta T off the stock sensor and its a pain to get too!! Ill let ya all know when i do it and how long it took!! Will be takin pics of that install myself!!

The gauges look great , you just need more practice on the install
I have it down to about 1 1/2 hours on our trucks
Come on out you can help me redo all the gauges in the Red Racer
We have to move them all because of the rollcage we need to install.
Plus we are adding about 9 more gauges.
