Default What do you guys think of the new Autometer Cobalt gauges?

I'm about to order a 5" monster tach in the new Cobalt design. I think the cobalt is pretty crazy looking. What do ya think?

I like the look. I made a post about it a couple of days ago but didn't get a response.

I am also getting the tach, air/fuel , fuel pressure gauges in the cobalt series.

I think they look pimp. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Cool]" src="gr_images/icons/cool.gif" />

I like them. If they were out before I got the ultralite gauges, I might have chosen differently. <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" />

Got mine on order <img border="0" title="" alt="[Cool]" src="gr_images/icons/cool.gif" /> along with new 18x9.5 chrome Z06's. I'm getting the air/fuel, fuel pressure, and oil pressure that will be placed in the triple pod. BTW, the 5" tach is not yet out, I just called today, but they should be getting them soon. Be careful tho, even if u have limo tints (which I do), the salesman said that 2 car lengths away, u can see the blue right throw, not the lettering or ne thing, but u could see blue. He said they are amazing looking, very cool!

I will probably switch over to those eventually too, would go nice with my slow blue car... <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

My 2 5/8" trans temp gauge is a lunar series, thats more of a teal color to it when its lit up...looks pretty good.. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

Cool deal guys! I just ordered mine. Question, can the 5" monster tach be mounted to the A pillar where it meets the dashboard? I really don't want to mount it in the middle of the dash (above the radio).

I like them, but the main reason holding me back is that they don't have a N2O psi gauge for them <img border="0" title="" alt="[Confused]" src="images/icons/confused.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Frown]" src="gr_sad.gif" />

I like these guages alot !! Too bad you can't switch the backlighting of the factory cluster to indigo blue as well .

Check out a lit up Volkwagon dash , like in a newer Jetta or Passat . The indigo blue/red dash lighting is beyond coolness

I really dig the look of it. I have not seen one in person but if its anywhere near as vivid then it kicks ***. Price sucks though!! Cheapest I have seen if for it $260 Still on the fence about wether or not Im gonna spring that much dough for the color, but DAMN it looks good <img border="0" title="" alt="[Confused]" src="images/icons/confused.gif" />
