So I am in the market to get some gauges for the arrr.
I'm going to stick with Autometer only because I can get them cheap and they are always in stock here.
Are there any gauges out there that are "back lit" or are they all front lit?
I'd love to get some that complement our gauge cluster but I don't know which ones will do this?

Can you please post some pics?
These are the ones I can find so far....

 

What extra information are you trying to extract from your engine? I guess it depends on the application. I don't see the point of just buying gauges for appearance, as they are fugly to begin with and clutter the cockpit. Unless they are serving some function.... Oil Temp and Oil pressure would be good ones, in my opinion.

 

For now I'd simply like to get a few so to know how my car is doing. I drive it year round and up here in Canada it gets cold so I'd like to know for example when my oil is warm before I go ahead and open up the engine.
I guess it's for piece of mind.
Boost will be coming later though.

 

the top one

 

I like the carbon fiber gauges too.
Does anybody have any pics of them at night?
Where are all of you who are running boost? You must have something!

If you want the carbon fiber autometers i've got brand new electrical fuel pressure and a/f ratio with an a pillar pod, let me know. I'll sell them for cheap...they've been sitting on my shelf for 6months

What's an a/r ratio? Did you mean a/f?
How much you want...I'm very interested!

PS- That Defi gauge is SWEET!

yeah i meant a/f it's been a long day

 

I'll take em off your hands then.
What are you willing to part with them for?

Which ones would you get then?
Anybody with pics of different gauges in thier Arrrr?

I have the carbon fiber autometers in mine , i didnt put the color pill in so they are just the color of the bulb, but im gonna pop the red in now . i have the tach to match too , im getting boost and egt soon too
heres the only pic i have handy of the a/f oil press and tach , there will soon be boost and egt around the bezel

 

For all of you who don't like any of them, please post some pics of the ones you DO like! I'm curious to see what's out there!

 

itr206,
You did an awesome job on your carbon fiber center console button area! I even saved a picture of yours from way back! Good show!
How do you like the carbon fiber gauges?

 

 

autometer defi

 

Omori is nice also.

 

Defi's are nice but that series (the one in the video) comes at a pretty steep price though. They actually make OEM gauges too. Like the one u see everyday in ur car.

 

I wouldn't get any of those choices, but if I had to pick regular gauges then it would be the Defi.

By the way, I would highly purchase this instead, because it has a lot of features that your looking for in one. Plus, you get a cool cluster as well.
