Hi guys,

I'm in the process of looking for gauges right now and I wonder if any of you guys can provide me with night shot of your gauges (when the light on). I know many of you guys have gona FI so some of you should have some pics of it... Thanks in advance

 

Check out the AutoMeter Nexus line - the orange version matches the G gauges perfectly...they have online demos on the site...the best gauge you can buy.

Ya I love them and I've seen Roneski's .... but they are too pricey IMO ... and before I purchase any, I was thinking, why don't I get some inspirations from other fellow member

 

No doubt!!! But for a perfect match...I think it's worth it.

I'm going through this stage now myself...this is a very timely thread for me.

and people pls don't be shy!! post your pics please

 

I don't know man...I've been buildling cars for 20 years...use nothing but AutoMeter - Apexi are also really good. I've heard lots of bad things about Defi though.

+1 all around. I don't know that autometer is the best, but they are quality gauges at reasonable prices (for the quality). In the end, that makes them a good buy. Having all of the color, size and face options also helps. I was always happy with them in my '97 Mitsu. GSX and my '55 Chevy Bel Air. For both cars, I was able to get some that matched perfectly.

Defi has made some nice-looking guages, but they didn't have a great reputation when I was in the market. Maybe they've changed that in the last couple of years.

I also like APEXi, but back when I had my GSX, their gauges were mainly metric. I like to see my boost in PSI for easy recognition. Readings in BAR had to be mentally converted. I'm sure they have a much wider variety now, but it would probably still come down price and overall look. While APEXi can look nice, Autometer usually has something that can really match your OEM cluster... ...if that's what you want.

 

I haven't had any problem's, they match pretty well....

 

^ That hizzzot!!! Best gauge cluster I've seen by far!

 

Which gauge is this? And how much $? Looks great

 

Those are the AutoMeter Nexus...they are AWESOME and expensive...

Rick

 

Somebody has to ask - how expensive?

 

roughly $250 per gauge...

 

so we're looking at a $750 gauge cluster? plus labor? wow.

 

With the custom work to mold that mount into the cover - I'd say $1,000 - $1,250 total for that exact look and feel - if you don't/can't do it yourself.
