Default Gauge install from today!!!! Couple pics!!!!!

In my quest for finding gauges that not many people have, and that were not expensive, i ran across these VDO vision series gauges, and i opted for the dual bezel pod cuz i didnt want a bunch of gauges up in my window like i had in my last car!!!

heres a couple pics, and the guages were like 90 bucks new from summit!!!
and the bezel was a 25 dollar ebay special!!!

You know, I was looking at the cluster pic there for a second trying to figure out why it looked so weird, and I just realised - no tach! lol

Gauges look plain and simple, not flashy so I guess you won't get eyesore.
They illuminate quite dim though - I hope you can brighten them up!
