Lets be honest the second most important factor in buyinag a gauge is what it looks like when the sun goes down. :cool: #1 would be the functionality.

ANyway I'm in the market for autometer phantom or ultra-lite guages. I know on the ultra-lites you can change the color of the light but what about the phantom.

And if anyone has any cool pics of their gauges you can post them too :thumb:
 
yea its yellow allright, but can ypu cahnge the color on them?
 
cobalts is the best, check mine

I switched to the new A'PEXi gauges because of how they look at night compared to the autometer. I HATED how my autometer looked at night, it drove me nuts. They do the job just fine.. but IMO look horrid at night
 
the silver sport comp ones.. the cobalt are OKAY.. but the APEXI El2 own them
 
I have some ultralites, sorry no pix. If you have the $$, the ones the dudes have above are nice, but spendy. If you are on a budget, the ultralites look pretty good, but if you want to make them look a little better do what I did:

Rather than getting the bulb condom thing, I actually got a completely different bulb from Autozone. It was in a yellow package and said something like Xtreme whatnot. It was a blue bulb, but it actually gave off a very sharp silverish look. Kinda like the HID headlights, very crisp and very white. FWIW.

I have defi d-gauges....and love them. They function great so I guess the functionality is
great as well and they look good at night.

dont mind the boost gauge reading....i was doing a boost leak test and decided to take some pics while I was waiting. ;)
