Hey people

Im in the process of buying stuff for my turbo setup. I just can't seem to find any gauges to suit e-series interiors. I have an ef fairmont ghia and im looking for something to light up at night the same colour as the dash. Please post photos of your gauges or any you think look good or interesting. Ive been thinking bout this one.

Doesn't really match but i think it looks clean.

Try the VDO range, they have a fairly basic looking model that goes well with stock instruments in early model E-Series.

Autometer have a big range. If you are loaded Defi gauges are cool!

Yeah I agree Autometer have a pretty big range, I suggest going to performance parts place and maybe get a catalogue, you will be surprised how many different styles of guages they actually have in their range

Most of them look so try hardish and extravagant. How are you supposed to know what they look like at night?

on some you can click to see it lit up.

I got a Stewart Warner guage, they're pretty sick too. Just google for it.

autometer sport comp 2s.
black face, white dial, and they light up white.

I have an autometer one in a black cup works well in my interior.

i would have to agree with the suggestion of autometer they have a wide range of gauges that look pretty cool
i have a voltmeter and when its off it just looks like a silver face wit a needle in the middle and at nite it looks pretty good
and in daylight it is good as visibility goes

Ahh ok well I went to repco yesterday and got a quote on the exact same gauge i got off ebay and they wanted $145 for it.

Oh you havent got a trade card or that have you.
I forgot about that .
All good

there are like 1 million autometer gauges, and they are all priced differently, electronic stepper ones can be almost 200, mechanical with a globe as lighting <100...

So a trade card gives you 50% off?

Is there a big difference between these highend brands and ur shitty ones on ebay/crazysales that are around the $40 mark?

Stewart Warner guages are the bomb! haha
