    AM gauges...who's using what?

    Looking to install a few after market gauges, possibly in the front ashtray area. Curious to see what brands everyone is using/what matches the interior the best as there are so many out there. Let's see some pics!

    I'm not using them but good old fashioned VDO gauges match the 80s interior well.

      I'm using VDO vision gauges with the panel that is sold here on r3v. They're a tight fit and you have to use the stud mounting kit. Other than that, they match the interior quite well. They even light up red at night.

          I currently have a vdo in my DD and it works great but I want to change it up and get something different

            Vdo oil temp, oil pressure, boost, water temp.
            The only thing digital is the AFR gauge. Vdo matches real well in our interior - timeless

              I've got the VDO vision series as well in my car. Hoping to add a few more gauges once the swap is done!

                I have VDO gauges in a triple dash vent pod. voltage, oil temp, oil pressure. they were pretty cheap and i'm very happy with them.

                not the best picture:

                        I have always liked Autometer. Good selection of both style and function.. I'm working on the 4 gauge set-up in the vent. 2 Pyro's, A/F wideband, Fuel pressure. Good for diagnostics , especially if you're boosted.
