I posted a Topic earlier today about gauge pods and it seems like everyone is getting one or hass one.

I am putting in a dual pod this weekend with a Nitrous pressure gauge and a voltmeter both made by AutoMeter and both are carbon fiber.

So the question becomes what gauges do you have in your ride?

How did you wire your voltmeter? All the way to the battery or just to the fuse box etc...

EverythingCelica is just a few days away from getting the new line of gauges from Autometer - these things are AWESOME!

Looks fabulous in person - photos from a recent installation will be done on Friday morning grin

Quote
A wicked blue light cuts through dark mist and tire smoke as a state-of-the-art power plant is brought up to full throttle. The tachometers glowing pointer smoothly edges towards 7,000 rpm. 1320 feet and in less than 12 seconds, silence. This is where cool blue calculation meets red-hot performance. This is C2. A 5" shift light tachometer, blue light, LED powered luminescent technology, contrasting hot accents, and a matching assortment of C2 stepper motor gauges is what you need. The C2 tachometer features precision air-core movement, engineered to provide extreme accurate readings under harsh conditions. Shift into a new light. C2 is whats hot.

The Electronic Gauges comes with this adapter already (I have a SINGLE brand new AC Autotechnic S7 Oil Pressure gauge with this adaptor for $40 SHIPPED, if you want it - its the last S7 Gauge I have - but it does come with a seperate oil pressure adaptor)

Im headed out this afternoon to pickup the rubber bulb caps and will return with a update on the prices thumbsup
(Should be around $6 (shipped) for a set of 5)
