I just installed my triple pillar guage mount as well as my c2 fuel pressure guage and c2 a/f guage. These damn things are bright as hell. check out the pictures. Im just doing alot of preliminary work to my car before the new motor gets here and these looked pretty cool so I snapped a few shots. Tell me what you think...

I was kinda thinking the same thing myself, they can be turned off because they are hooked into the dimmer but then my interior lights would go off as well. If its too bad I'll hook up a switch so I can turn the lights on/off.

Very nice!
How hard were they to install?
I just bought some Cobalt Gauges and I am a little intimidated to install these myself.
I have a Fuel Pressure and Boost Gauge.
Any info would be greatly appreciated!!

I wasnt hard at all to install them. the guage pod piller fit like a glove and with a drill and a dremel I got it looking pretty good. I also decided to drill through the firewall right below the master cylinder to give me easy access to the engine bay plus I did not have splice this way haha. The only other issue was wiring up the power, dimmer and ground wires which I tapped all into the stereo for that. I found a thread that had the wiring schematic for our radios which made that easy. I'll post that once I get home.

you need power +12 switches for the gauges.
you can get this from the radio harness, or the fuse box.
you need a dimmer wire for the lights, you can get this from the radio harness, or the fuse box "IP dimmer" fuse.
you need a ground for the system.
