[QUOTE="FlaSVT, post: 38461, member: 105"] Seems like most have gone with the 2-1/16 gauges. Which ones are the best made and fit the best is a tough call. The original 2 hole Lotek pods looked ok but didn't fit worth a darn. Their newer 3 hole piece is supposed to be much better in the fit department but from what I hear you still have to add some padding at the top, behind the headliner, to make is look like it should. The Autometer pods look ok but the do look like an add-on. They do have a newer one that covers the original stock pillar and it has three holes. The Autometer pillar doesn't come painted. The Lotek comes either painted or not and the painted one costs more. Since I have the two hole version I went with the A/F meter and the boost gauge. If I had a three hole I'd probably go with a temp gauge or maybe a volt meter. I also need to figure out how to get a fuel pressure gauge in there some where. These things aren't that hard to install and make look good (JMHO). You just need to take your time and have it all figured out before you start. Just think everything through before hand and it will come out fine. Here's some that Flastman has installed in his F150 [img]http://www.flaperformance.tzo.com/gauge_lites/gauge_lites.jpg[/img] Here's one of the Lotek pillars [img]http://64.81.197.42/photos/9/9990/17578/fe6dfce9jpgorig-or.jpg[/img] So when you planning to do the install? :D:D [/QUOTE]
