Gauge Setups (Pics Welcome!)

I am looking into getting a dual A-pillar pod for my '00 SS. I am going to be getting a fuel pressure gauge along with a coolant temp gauge. I am trying to decide which model of autometer gauges to go with..... I am liking the look of the cobalts with the black face. I am having a hard time deciding on going with a black face or a white face gauge... If anyone has pics of their setup that would be great. Also, how do you like the look of the gauges when lite up at night? Thanks!

Silver

I went wirth the silver ones that match my autometer piller gauges perfectly The white was just too plain for my likeing. Silver seemed a little more sporty IMO But if your set on white it would look good too

I'd get whatever matches your gauge cluster.

For me that was the Phantom gauges. Here are a couple pictures:

It's actually not that bad. I sit fairly upright when I drive my car. If I was leaned back like most guys drive F-bodies, I can see where it would get annoying. I can see everything between the steering wheel perfectly.

I bought an Autometer Sport Comp II because it's not too flashy, but it's black faced and orange needle that matches w/ my stock cluster and it's LED back-lit.

You can. Just have to arrange the gauges differently. I'd do one for someone if they'd supply the gauges and an old cluster so I can make a "pod".

Mine...I've since tinted the Nitrous Pressure gauge's glass so it's dark like the other two.

I know this is going to be asked, so I might as well answer it now...

Top LED = Calibration Light for LC1 Wideband
Push Button = Calibration Button for LC1 Wideband
Bottom LED = Lean A/F Nitrous Shut Down Warning
