I'm working on my interior and would like to get an aftermarket pillar with some guages. I can't decide on 2 or 3 guages. Show me pics of your all's setups and list where you got it if you don't mind. Thanks

Thanks, the factory gauges are all being replaced as we speak with autometer cobalts. Much nicer and way more accurate. I actually let the wife pick which gauges to use for the setup. That way she has some say and doesn't kill me for spending so much on performance mods

I just bought a 2 gauge autometer pillar for my camaro, my interior is dark grey, when the pillar came in, I opened the box and it was black, like ebony black, what should I do about this? Should I Just use it the way it is, or should I paint it grey?

How much do the Cobalt guages run a piece? What about the CF ones? I love the way they look!

Full sweep cobalts are 200 a piece, short sweep vary, and tach and speedos are 150 to 250 a piece. I know summit sells them all. If you call Tom at speed inc. he will price match their prices and order any gauge you want.

Scott those look great man. At first I wasn't a huge fan of the digi's on many other cars, but they work in yours. It almost looks factory! Thanks for the pics.

Anybody else have pics of their Cobalts???

My 3 gauge pillar has been sitting on the floor for a few years now haha. Have any of you seen the new autometer guage that has the same features as the G-tech pro's? It's made to fit into the pillar.
