looks good

swickwake 11-10-2008 11:04 PM

it all good. driving all day and i have not seen the gauge go above 150 -160 and it is not distracting at all.

Whats that for? (serious), Temperature gauge? (sarcasm)

i'd paint to match. it looks good, but it doesn't look factory. i'm kinda ocd about things like that

this gauge was the closest to my stock set as i could find. planning to change the back light to match though. i am keeping the pod black for now because it kind matches the tan/black interior.

Looks alright, but would look better if it was painted to match the rest of the interior.

i like it. pretty smart thinking too since your tranny temp might be off.
