Doesn't look like we have too many options for the hard top guys. =( I'm looking for something that looks OEM and molded in.

That was on a overcast day with door shut (tint). Yeah thats how bright they are. On a sunny day when you turn the lights on you can barely see a difference.

Where did you all get the pillar mounts at? And did you have to remove the stock piece or does it slip over it.

BTW i have T-tops.

Im thinking about going with the autometer cobalts, they just look so sweet at night. Going with the 2 1/16" electrical. Trans Temp, and Water temp, but what is more logical Oil Temp or Oil Pressure. I know we have oil pressure gauges but how accurate are they?

Lastly is there a write-up on the install of these or can someone briefly explain it to me. Thanks.
