Default tach pictures on a-pillar

Im looking for pictures of autometer 5" tachs, that are mounted on the a pillar. If they also had a 2 gauge pod on there also that would be great.

I thought he same thing when I bought my 95 Firehawk- previous owner mounted a monster tach and shift light just like SS 502 and I didn't get it.... I ended up loving it. It's funny- I took it to the Trans am nationals a few weeks ago and had multiple people take pics of the tach which really surprised me.
