Are you planning on getting vacuum or digital?

Man, I could never get any of the digital ones. Dunno, they just look too..... Meh.

IMO if I had a black car + black interior, I think it'd look cool with white gauges. Maybe the UltraLite? Maybe that's just me

I have a 2pod pillar mount gauge, that is where tranny temp and fuel pressure will go. http://www.roadracemotorsports.com/s...es/theone4.jpg
boost, egt, and a/f will all be on the wideband. I want to mount that on the steering column.

I have seen a member who did some custom fiberglass work, and mounted them in a triangle formation where the ash/coin tray is....then molded it in with the rest of the lower console

Just get a scangauge for all that stuff. Pretty much all in one.

Didn't even know they made tranny temp gauges?

Thats what i wanted to do, but then i realized my wideband is just like a scangauge. It will tell me a/f, boost, and egt. While the pods show tanny temp and fuel pressure. The tranny temp is a must with the auto i think.
