I'm going with the Autometer Nexus Series....they are awesome.
Are all the gauge pods the same; some say paint to match interior color, are there any that are already color matched for interior color? If not where to we get the paint?

For a camaro though? Can't exactly stick em nicely in our vents lol
I do like them on the dash panel under the radio though, they look nice.
I'm probably going to go with the 3 gauge cobalts. They look sweet

You know what I never could understand is why nobody ever made a gauge cluster to fit on the dash, right smack in the center.... in front of the windshield air vent. I seen a concept once in the Billet company's project Camaro car, but nobody has made one since...so I gave up looking. A low profile 3 gauge pod would kick butt....wouldn't obsruct your view, and look pretty damn cool...you could even have a slot for a radar detector in it.

Pillar pods look cool to me mm hmm. Gives that jet fighter cockpit look.
One thing I'm thinkin though...if you get pulled over and you got 3 gauges right there - all overkill and everything - when he walks up - that cop is not gonna be thinkin maybe you just slipped up a little and weren't payin attention to how fast you were goin at that particular moment he clocked you like you'll be claiming lol. He's gonna whip out his special little money making book and give you a page from it. He's gonna be thinkin "racerboy got so many gauges to tell him what's goin on and claims innocence?? yeah right..."
