Question on pillar pod guages

[Hitman]

This maybe a dumb question,but I gotta' ask it. Does Autometer,or anyone else,make pillar gauges that have white faces that glow green like our dash guages? I'm not talking the SAME color green,just green in general. Need to add at least to guages and I'd like them to be uniformed.

Hitman:

Autometer makes the white face Phantom gauges.

You'll want to install a green bulb or use the bulb covers that come with the gauge. The green bulbs almost match perfectly.

I have them in my L and they look great.

Now,wheres the easiest place to order from on the net?
The "performance" shops around here over charge for everything.Any places of intrest on here I should check out?

Hitman - I orderd mine from Summit Racing. Had them in a couple of days after I ordered.

I got the part #'s from www.Autometer.com and then purchased from www.Carparts.com. Be sure to search the internet for coupons. They offer quite a discount on the gauges.

could you all post a couple pics of the gauges in the light and in the dark?

 

[Hitman]

Rich,
I have the numbers of the gauges I want,as well as the three pod pillar ,but I have a couple more questions for you:
Whats this about coupons??? And the pods come in a flat paintable black correct?
I can't say I have ever heard of such a thing as an internet coupon,where do you find them? Damn.Thats THREE questions,sorry 'bout that

 

[WHAT04]

Phantom gauge photos? Sure.....

 

[FlaSVT]

WHAT04 - Is this one of the first 3 pods from Lotek or is it one of later ones? If it's one of the later ones, hows the fit?

FlaSVT,

That is a Lo Tek purchased about a month and a half ago. The fit is far from perfect, but acceptable. I wasn't expecting perfection, so I wasn't disappointed.

The pod is about 1/4" too short. Stuff some foam up behind the roof liner and everything is A-Okay.

What04,

I've got the two gauge pod, where did you get the matching paint?
I've thought about custom mixing some and running it through my airbrush.
Any suggestions appreciated!!

i just ordered my air/fuel , boost/vaccum-and pods today

 

[WHAT04]

Fred Metzler Jr,

The Lo Tek pod that I have comes painted. Sorry, can't help you this time!!

 

[FlaSVT]

Most (some) auto parts stores have interior touch up paint. I bought some at a discount auto parts store. Check you trim code. If I remember correctly it something like L2 which somehow translates in to med graphite. The stuff I bought matches pretty well.
