Question About Gauges

[johny_boy32]

I'm gonna have my parents get me the 3 gauge pillar pod for my car for christmas. I know i want the Oil pressure gauge, Air/Full gauge, and...well....thats where you come in...what should the other gauge be and where can I find white gauges that glow blue at night. If they don't glow blue i dont want them because they wont match the rest of my lights and halo's in my car. I have found green and red lighted ones but no blue...anyone have an idea on either one of my ?'s. Thanks for the help, John

Personally i would put a digital volt meter. I have one in my car and it helps me when i compete with my stereo. Just my idea, and the blue lights, i found some a while back at my Advance Auto store. Don't know if they still sell them there, but worth a shot. ;)

i would do volt. i have oil, a/f, and volt. far as light up blue, you can do autometer gauges and put a blue LED light in them. far as indiglo blue, there is autometer C2, faze, and i think there are a few others on nopi.com.

Hello all alero lovers. I am thinking about puting in some gauges as well. The question that I have is how hard are they to put it. More specificaly did you guys used mechanical or electric gauges for teh oil pressure and A/F meter. If they were done the electircal way where did you hook up the wires from gauges. I really like the look of gauges but I do not want to go the mechanical way (could become messy).
Please help.

yea, i got air/fuel and volt in the same gauges oldsman has in a 2 pillar pod.

well you can go to either electric or mech. oil pressure. i have mechanical. i was going to go to electric but oh well. it think the mechanical is better but i am a little old school on that.

far how hard to install. they really aren't. they only think that can be a pain is the oil pressure but that depends on what motor you have.
