I don't know how sleeper this is really but they work well, and aren't completely obvious from outside the car.

If those were black gauges with flat black bezels, it would look very factory.

Here's what I've been wanting to do:

^^^ /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/jawdrop.gif I had to watch that 3x; awesome! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/worthy.gif

 

Wow, just when I thought the flip tray looked good, that person had alot of time on their hands, but it looks great.

I saw a pic a while back of somebody mounting some gauges behind the center vents, that looked pretty slick.

Mine are that way. I stole the idea from Gabor

Damn that's badass. What size/brand gauges are those?

If that was directed at me, the boost gauge is a VDO Vision series, the EGT is a Westech (aircraft). I'll take out the EGT and replace with a WideBand gauge when I get it. I don't even have a probe installed for the EGT anymore.

here's what i did for my boost gauge




edit: nighttime pictures

I've got mine nice and low.

I can also turn them off with the fog light switch so no apexi blue gauge lights at night...

Plus the dash carpet adds to the grandma effect.

(Sorry for the poor pic.. it is the only one I could find of the interior)

hide one of these behind a fake OEM cluster?

personally, I don't really see the need for gauges for the most part. sh*t like boost is set and forget, and dsmlink or AEM can trigger a CEL when something bad is happening (as can Jeff's chips). /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/dunno.gif

I'm kind of anti-gauge myself.

those are some sick ideas!
