Default The OFFICIAL Gauge Thread

unless one already exists that i don't know about. Post up pictures of your aftermarket gauge work in the interior here! Right now i have a 3 pod a-pillar gauge setup and im debating whether to keep it or not. Looks pretty good, but im looking for some other ideas. Feel free to post up your a-pillar setup as well. Write-ups and how-to's are good as well. Post up your pics!

No pictures at the moment, but I have a dual gauge pillar pod with Autometer Phantom gauges. I will eventually have the 3 center vents filled with gauges.

I also have a set of McNord gauges which are about to be made:

My white-faced cluster is one of the 200MPH GMS conversions.
The two gauges in the radio bezel are Interceptors.
And the remaining two are Phantom IIs by Autometer, transmission temp and oil temp.

They are backlit white. If you check the Autometer site you'll see what I'm talking about.

Granatelli Motorsports; however, they no longer do the conversion.
