search next time man

 

yeah i have it in red aswell. definately worth it! but i will say if you dont know how to soder do not try and install them yourself.

 

it's easy when you have your Dad's ancient Weller

 

I think they look pretty badass!

 

I have a set of my own that are a one off, and just ordered a set for my g/f's srt. They make grade AA stuff, you won't be disappointed. I'm also the first and only member with a stock boost gauge with a custom face. As far as I know anyway...I don't think anyone else has it yet.

 

The blue looks good, but Im worried about it being too bright.

Search wont work for me. It never does. Not sure why.

Thanks for the link though.

 

how did you get the stock gauge apart without f-ing it up. PM me please. Pictures too

 

I've had my custom boost gauge face installed for a little over 2 months now. Just saying...

But they definatley make some amazing gauges. I went with the carbon fiber version and it looks sick. I myself did not go with an LED upgrade as I can't do and sodering myself. Personally I think the lighting looks awesome without the LEDs. Plus its not too bright ot distracting.

By prying it open with a tiny flat head. It takes time and you have to be pacient so you don't F it up. But you definitley can not tell it was ever opened when you reinstall it. Its a pain in the ass to get the needle in the right spot though. Just make sure its perfect before you snap the cover back on.

 

so the metal bezel ring pops off? or is it totally different from any of autometer's aftermarket gauges?

 

Well, ur the first person besides myself I know of that has it. Not tryin to brag or anythin, but I'm the feller that had to deal with a canadian boost gauge for 2 months so alex could design those boost faces off of my gauge. The installation pics in the instructions are of my gauge. Btw, glad I don't live in canadia cuz that kpa **** is for the birds lol got a pic of it? I'm interested to see what you did with urs

You have to pry it off witth a small flathead screwdriver. Pain, but totally worth it afterwards

 

hmm. i'll have to look at the stock gauge tomorrow. I don't know how similar/different it is to the other Autometer gauges i have. I just assumed there was no way to open them.

 

Oh they're openable, its just a pita cuz it takes so long to get em open

 

you've opened aftermarket Autometer's?

 

I'll try to get some pics up. I haven't taken pics in the longest time so I figure I am going to just take a bunch shots and then take a run for COTM. I have so much done and basically have never show anyone.

 

I was referring to the stock one...but I think while alex was taking mine apart to do the face for it we had talked about some autometers being able to be opened and some not. He'd be the one to ask for sure tho

 

i dunno who Alex is

 

thats why im geting mine installed by someone who does

 

He's the owner of black cat custom and the guy that will design and produce your guage faces if you were to order lol

 

If you get the hid kit, does the dimmer work anymore ?

 

haahaha hids in your gauge cluster would be nuts
there leds bro
and i believe the dimmer still does i asked alex a while ago and im pretty sure he said it does

 

My bad, im tired. At least I didnt say rpm.

 

 

yes the dimmer works still

 

Cool, might look into it then.
