gauges

I bought A-pillar gauges, boost, piro and trans. I did not realize the pillar came black so I have to wait for the paint to come.

My question is, will it effect anything if I go ahead and run the gauges ( hooking them up to what they need to be hooked up to), without actually hooking up the gauges and installing the pillar. I was just going to tape the ends up until I got the paint. Thanks in advance.

That doesn't sound like it would be a problem to me. Maybe just a little extra work. But you will be ahead of the game once your paint gets there.

Where are you swole? If you are close, I have the paint for my color interior that you could use if you have the same color code. It looks the same based on your dash color in your gallery.

Never mind. I see palm trees in the background of some of your pictures. You must be further from me than it would be practical.

I appreciate it, I live in FL. I would probably be smart and go to the stealership but I'll just order it from diesel manor, there cans are bigger and I have a few spots I would like to touch up( a little too much 4wheelin).I know it was probably a stupid question, but I have never in my life claimed to have known everything. It is better to ask questions then to screw something up and pay more later.

HKusp you have a nice truck, I like the rims.
