I've got an autometer Phantom II fuel pressure gauge in my gauge pod and I LOVE the way they look lit up at night

I have a full set of autometer ultra lites in the mustang and they look great. Very simple to read and there is a huge selection of them to choose from.

Defi gauges are very nice, but they are also expensive, prosports are GREAT for the price you are paying, but autometer is fine by me.
