New Gauges

Here are some pics of reverse / indiglo gauges that I installed. They are SpeedGlo brand and change color from green to blue. They are actually specified as 94-97 Honda Accord Gauges but they align perfectly with the CL gauges. I think the only difference is that the redline is about 200 rpm higher on these. I also put some chrome surrounds on which adds a nice look. I know a lot of people here bash indiglos but I think these add a nice look while still maintaining a relatively stock look. The old gauges just aren't much to look at and do look like they are straight out of an early 90's Honda.





Next to come is a perforated leather/wood steering wheel from the 2001-2003 TL and CLs. I had purchased the MDX steering wheel but the color doesn't align with ours.

Here's what the aluminum bezel would look like had I added it. I wanted a more stock look, plus I don't really think it goes with the interior of the car at all. The chrome rings would have cleaned up the look of it around the gauges a little.

looks nice, I have the chrome rings, but I agree the bezel is too much, I like what you did way more

Yeah, it's an adjustment. The big problem is that they are kind of glossy and semi-reflective. I haven't driven with the sun behind me but I can see that becoming an annoyance. But at night it's a way better look than the originals.
