i wanna put some pillar gauges in my LMM...but i would like to find some gauges that look like the factory cluster i've found some that during the day do but at night they just have a little white light that lights the whole gauge up. i would love to find ones that the numbers light up green like factory..anyone?

I think the Autometer SportComp II look close to stock.

X2...I have a friend who has the Autometer Sport Comp IIs and they do look factory - I haven't seen his at night...I've only seen night shots here in the forum. Another friend has the ISSPros, and those look OE, as well. Personally, I'm torn between the two.

I put in autometer z series pryo and boost and replaced the bulbs with leds from here
http://www.superbrightleds.com/mini-wedge.html they plug right in as replacements I used the wled-x4 green in color, they are much better at lighting the guage and they dim fine along with my cluster lighting, lighting color is off a little but acceptable. Much more visable than the bulbs that came with the guages.

there are a couple in the autometer line that will match fairly close. Or you could choose a set of quages you like and look to try and find a overlay for the factory cluster. Maybe white face autometers and a white face cluster over-lay.

My BD X monitor matches the green display of my DIC, stereo, etc perfectly. I'm not sure if the newer dashes are similiar nor if BD makes a pillar mount for your truck but I am totally satisfied. The max memory for up to three parameters is handy. There are several brightness levels; the design improvement would be integrated dimmable lighting.

I have the Autometer Sport Comp II's and the back lighting matches the factory dash great. A lot of people think they are factory. If you mount them on the A pillar get a dimmer because they will be too bright at night.

See my garage for my Sport Comp II's on the A pillar. Resistor installed so the LEDs aren't so bright. Fairly close match to the factory.
