Nexus GAUGES.. NEW LED'S.. Check it out

Autometer Nexus gauges.. oil pressure oil temperature and water temperature.. i had to use an autometer cobalt gauge for air/fuel ratio that is the one to the bottome right of the steering wheel.. the led's under the dash give an appearance that the overhead console does.. subtle and nice.. with the gauges, I was bored..
the gauges have 7 different selectable LED colors..

there is no gauge where the ignition key goes.. and the gauges are positioned in a way which doesn't block out the other gauges.. they basically sit centered...

The car is stock right? I guess I just dont understand the concept of putting gauges in a car that essentially is stock? You havent done anythign that would change oil pressure, oil temp or water temp OR Air fuel?

BUTTTT its your car, not mine so to each their own, but I'd never put guages in a 35k car. Its a luxury sport sedan, not an integra, and I wouldnt even put gauges in my integra if it was stock either...

I like the gauges. I have gauges on my 1984 Buick Skylarker. So Derek, Keep your negitive comments to yourself. Stock this stock that.... SHUT UP! If you have nothing nice to say do not say it at all. I should kick your badonkidonk. I hope you step in s#$t today. HOLLA at ya Mechanic...

What we have here Michael, is the landing module tracker from the Sputnik. It blinks red when you are within 50ft of the ground.

Are you serious? I better watch what I type on an internet forum, or I might get my ass kicked!!

I mean its totally inappropriate to have my own opinion, seeing that I'm out of line, and I was calling him names and everything right? Right.

Anyways, rock on with that '84 Buick of yours champ. I'm sure its a real cream puff.

i was going to but the pillar flies off when the air bag deploys.... i might eventually move them to the left of the steering wheel underneath in a custom pod..

AHH!!! na na yo.. You should just put the gauges in the back headrests. Then you can put a few mirrors strategically around the car so you can bounce the image off of the dash and into your eyes.

complete waste of money, it doesn't look right where you have them, and they are really no use on a stock car. if you have an oil pressure problem your oil light will come on, same for the temp gauges, guess the stock temp gauge isn't good enough.

but if you like it then thats cool with me too

so you are saying.. if you're an airplane pilot.. you shouldn't have gauges in the cockpit?? when the light comes on, it's too late.. it's good to know what your engine is doing.. plus it looks good... considering your avitar, i don't think you are someone with good taste..

It looks like you ignition keyhole has something on it, is it just the reflection on the key, that is what I am looking for in the picture.

It looks like you have the smart key installed.
