Gauges Well im wanting to give the interior of the car alittle more to look at, i want a triple gauge pillar pod for my camaro and im wanting to get gauges that match the stock black gauges. And since im planning on a converter i want a tranny temp gauge, along with a digital AIR/Fuel ratio gauge, and oil temp gauge. What would you guys recommend and can i see picks of your setup.
Not sure about which guages you want, I have Phantom IIs in my car. But I had to run the wires through the firewall by the computer (N20 and fuel pressure). You might be able to use one of the rubber gromets under the carpet.
They are not hard to wire, just trying to find out where to wire them is the hard part. Just three wires to hookup, a switched 12v, ground, and to the dash lights.

brand new air to fuel meter A4 car needs trans temp. and a water temp that actaully moves trans just go though the console to trans diagnositic port, water temp just go to right cylinder head a/f just connect to PCM.
I have a brand new (NIB) air to fuel ratio meter autometer new is like $69. plus ship.
I'll sell for $50. obo it has a black face has silver dial (ring) it's 2 1/16" includes instructions.

Thanks for the info Spee, i have my stock gauges lighting up red now and wanted a matching theme and now i know that the Sport comp ones do light up red those are my choice. You wouldnt happen to have any picks of them lit up at night???
Excuse the blur, and it's not nearly as intense as it seems in the picture. Also, a lot of the illumination actually seems to come from around the face of the gauge instead of through the white lettering.

still that is a great picture to see, since that is the exact thing i was wanting and now i know what it looks like at night my decision is made. thanks alot Spee.
It was just sitting in one of the T/A's circular vents while diagnosing a low oil pressure condition. I would have left it there if the problem had been The in-cluster gauge, but I took it out since I appreciate my air vents.
And you replied too quickly for me to add to my last post, we need pics when you're done, it should look nice with a red-lit Camaro interior.

No that's not a wideband. What that guage does is bounce a light back and forth, really fast. Something like http://www.dynotunenitrous.com/store...?idproduct=210
If you don't plan on doing any type of n2o or forced induction, you don't need a wideband.
You are getting the full sweep guages right?
