Default New Series of DEFI Gauges

http://www.tein.com/defi/blue_racer.html

I guess this is why they discontinued the D-Gauge in boost. They look nice, but I hate the "ricer" blue. I'd be all over them if they were available in amber. Sorry if this is a repost.

I wouldn't mind the blue...but it doesn't match anything. My interior lighting is amber.

I love the blue, but it doesn't match. Those would look great in a VW. So, all DEFI did is make the display black when off like their other gauges, and change the color to blue? I'm glad I bought the D-gauges.

Those are definitely nice, but more reddish. I think Evos and WRXs are that color, but for 99-00 Sis and ITRs, the D-gauge was a near perfect match.

The boost gauges seem to be the toughest to find. In the auctions I've seen, they're going for a premium. Good luck.

Screw that lightshow crap. If you have the money to get Defi gauges you might as well get the Defi display and appropriate sensors so you do not end up with a dashboard that looks like a 747 on crack.

I know I know! Some of you guys actually like those ricerlicious disco lightshows on your dash.

if you're looking for the numbers to be backlit like the megan, blox, and defi gauges... autometer just released 3 series w/ that lighting style.

Sport Comp II, Phantom II, &Ultralite II.

Those aren't bad, but the closest one is the Ultra-Lite II...but its a silver face.
