Well Im going to be buying some guages soon and Im not sure what I want to go with.

Lets see some pics of your guages installed. I think I want to go with the overhead console (Black with switches) but not sure about which guage style I want. Im going to be going with a Pyrometer and a Boost guage

So lets see them :D

I have my Firestone air pressure gauges for my air bags in the overhead console, and VDO pyrometer and boost gauges in my A-pillar pod. Pics in my garage.

here they are, phantom 2 gauges egt, coolant, boost. if i did it again i would go with the sport comp 2. they look nicer at night than the white face gauges. they look pink with needle illuminated.

I have the ISSPRO white/blue gauges. Love them!

Check my garage for pictures of installation in the overhead console.

Have a look at the pictures of my Ultra-Lites in the a pillar in my garage.

Call me when you get in, I will be installing both the a-pillar and trippin mount.

I like them fine. Ramp up/down quickly but still readable as they do it, not like a fuel pump where the numbers just look like "8"s because they move so fast.

A bit bright, as I still havent put that resister inline on the lighting circuit.

Autometer 6370 boost and 6345 pyro.

On my old truck had 6 switches in a custom mount and it wasn't enough for all the goodies I had in there, right now in this truck only 3 are being used (amplifier, lift pump, high idle) for now but whenever I put all my stuff in there i'm sure they will end up getting used, can never have enough switches ):h

Autometer cobalt guages. I don't have a pic when there lit at night, but they look pretty sweet with the backlite blue leds.

Here's mine. I made it from the cover that takes place of the pocket in the WT's. Drilled it out and poped it right in. Autometer Ultralights with PPE boost controller on the left and my strobe lights on the right. ;)

I just picked up this new gauge pocket mount from TTS today. I got the first ones of the production run. :D:D

Takes about ten minutes to install, uses the factory spring clips and mounting locations - snaps in place. Looks like it came from the factory that way. Tilts the gauge upward and toward the driver on a compound angle - can see it clearly with just a glance.

$29.95 for either version. (with and without the switch hole/recess)

I picked up a Push ON/OFF switch at Radio Shack that fits real nice in the switch recess for power to a nitrous solenoid .:cool:

You could also use a rotary switch in it for guys with multiple tunes, I would suppose.:rolleyes:

hyper, i like that cubby mount. its half the price of the guy here who sells cubby cam mounts, etc. is it on tts's site?

Yeah, that is sweet. Just found it on TTS' site and am about to order one for my WT!!

Here it is: http://www.ttspowersystems.com/GM_Gauge_Mount.html

*edit* as soon as I find a dealer...I thought I could order from TTS????? Someone please chime in here, now I gotta have one!!

I cant beleive Im saying this, but that TTS mount is clean.

Just give Vickie a call at TTS and she will take your order. (310)669-8101

Should be able to order via web in a week.:D

cobalts all the way love them!!!

I don't have any pics yet, but I have Autometer Sport Comp II's, I am sure there are others that have the same guages. I really like the through LED lighting, and they are very similar to the Instrument Panel Cluster.

<----no big pics yet

Yea dude that is sweet how much and where did you get it?

Thanks guys. I got the escalade gauge kit through JP Customs and added the blue LEDs myself. There's a write up in the DIY section about the LED swap and here's my thread that has some pictures as well http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/showthread.php?t=232079

Gonna work on coming up, yes. Nick needs a Dyno LOL.

a lot of nice gauges out there i have the trippin mount and autometer boost and pyro gauges but i am a little hesitant to tackle this project i have been lookin around for some good install pics but i have came up a bit short on those i might just take the easy way out and try and find someone around northern Illinois to install them any input on how smooth the install might go

Gonna work on coming up, yes. Nick needs a Dyno LOL.

Do any of the supporting vendors sell Stewart Warner "impact" gauges? I saw them in dmaxlover's truck and thought they matched factory pretty well, but I can't seem to find them in a package deal anywhere. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Jess

Here are my gauges crappy pic awesome gauges just wish the boost gauge went a little higher

They are 60MM Defi BF Amber They have REC, Playback, Peak Hold and you can preset a warning beep like the Autometer Nexus but these gauges came out before the nexus

Very cool! I was wondering how the "through-the-dial' lighting was at night. Is it easier to read the gauges at night than the perimeter lit gauges of old?

It looks awesome at night. The pictures I took of them at night are on my computer at home, I don't have them here at work. I will send you a picture unless someone posts a night picture up here on the forum before that.

Sorry .. I need to clearify... There is a ton of product we offer in house for the past years of business but the on line store is still new to us and there is A TON that needs to be loaded on it. Of course ordering by phone is not the easiest and on line stores are when every there is something you see that we use on our builds but don't see it on my site feel free to PM me any pricing you have found and I am happy to match or sometimes beat the price.

Do you want pyro, boost & ?

I will PM you a price:)

How hard is it to mount them?

Do you guys have them done by a shop?

Isspro gauges with a universal dash mount pod from Summit.
I shaped the bottom of the pod to follow the contour of the top of the dash. I drilled a hole in the dash under the pod so the wires are not exposed. I've looked at many pictures of A Pod gauge mounts and decided that I just don't care for them so I went with this setup.

quick question(s) for you guys....

I have the ProComp Ultra Lites right now and they are not bright enough. I'm running red in the fuel and boost (top 2) and a "frosted" bright white in the pyro. I like the look and the 2 reds match my head unit, but they are not even close to being bright enough IMO.

do I need to look into different gauges or can I just buy new bulbs? the bulbs I have in there now are aftermarket bulbs that shine that color (no sleeves over regular bulbs style). I've looked all over the internet and I just can't tell what should be brighter or if it will be.

I can get a night pic a little later if necessary. thanks.

here ya go
