I just got my "CUSTOM" 3 gauge pod in yesterday that "crash712us" makes for my 2013 SHO, and let me first say...  THIS GUY BUILDS A KILLER GAUGE POD, BEAUTIFUL JOB, I COULD NOT BE HAPPIER.  Anyway, I have been doing a lot of looking around at different gauges, since I also own a dragster and I'm at the track, I really have my heart set on the Autometer C2's, that light up bright blue at night. Has anyone had any experience with these gauges in a street car, in dragsters they are beautiful, but I was wondering, will they be "TO BRIGHT" at night in a street car? What gauges are you guy's running?  Also, besides boost, what 2 other gauges should i get? it's a 3 gauge pod. Again, Thank you "crash712us" for the work of art.    Rich

I really like my ProSport. Tons of light control. Perfect for at night. Along with peak boost and the headlight dimming feature.

Speed Hut.... Custom Build them to look how you want them to look..... Blue needle, red needle, different fonts, back lighting....

Because they are built to order... kinda expensive.. but I really like the one I had in my '11 F150 EB.

I opted for the Officially Licensed Ford Racing Series set of gauges from Autometer.

Love 'em and are as close to a factory appearance (at least for the 2010-12 model years) as possible.

Here's my set-up:



Also, not sure if it would be of any help, but Autometer does produce a dimmer switch device that handles up to a total of 6 separate gauges. The product can be found here ------------------>

Defi gauges are kind of cool too. They're offered in pretty much any color combo and variation.

I have two aeroforce gauges and an AEM water/meth gauge if you want to see what they look like.  I'm in the town north of you (Millstone) so you could come see them in person if you're interested.

Yes, I def. would be interested, I work in Millstone, and I'm only 5-10 drive to work, so were def. close. I def. would love to stop by. I also would love to bring my car with me BUT, a 18 year old kid in a 2013 mustang, T-BONED me Saturday night, and took out both pass. side doors, all 4 side air bags popped....  I'M SICK!!  Only good thing is that my insurance already cut me a check and Jerry's in Jackson picked it up yesterday, and my baby is on it's way to be fixed. I also run "UNLEASHED" tunes, and I just bought the water meth kit so we def. will get along just fine.   You could hit me up with a private message, and let me know exactly where your at.  Rich

The accident is unfortunate, glad you're OK. Probably not a great idea to have your phone number posted publicly though.
