    I used the 88-91 CRX triple gauge pod with my auto meter lunar series. I dont have any night time pictures yet but i really like the lunar series back lighting.




    The pod only needed a little trimming on the bottom which is hidden on the side of the dash and then the top. You have to cut the A-Pillar oem molding basically in half so the top meets up to the new pillar. Over all its easy and looks really good when done but the gauges can be expensive.

    99 eclipse pod... fits ok, little molding/trimming, an 88-91 Rex pod may be better. Tenzo R gauges

    Mike, That was old and i bought that really early before i knew it was worthless. I have the AEM WB with the gauge which is a tad larger or a ring but i wanted to have my AFR displayed rather than having to use my laptop to read it.

    And for the factory gauges i have the procarparts overlays which are not bad for price and appearance (shown in picture).

    I dont suppose theres a way to print the 3geez racing over the tach on those procarparts is there. Is that the style with the switch to change colors and the super shiny gauge faces?

    Yeah it has the blue/green backround. I actually dont use the back lighting i use the oem lighting right now. The face is semi-gloss and if you get a decal you can put what ever you want on the face of it.

    so if you were to take out the green blue bulbs behind the gauges and swap them out for say red would it look cool or kinda dumb. it even possible?

    what gauges are those in the cluster? What did you do to the garage door anyway. It looks like you ran into it.

    Here is my guages. I don't have a daytime pic at the moment. It isn't to bad a job to install them , but I did have to move the guages around quit a bit so it wasn't rubbing the fuel guage. I have a manual tranny, but got these for auto cause I was cheap when I got em'. I still like them.

    I dunno..... When I get my new carb and at that stuff I'm gonna have to get a better a/f gauge to manage my fuel to better tune the carb.

    Here's mine.

    mykwikcoupe< light bulb has the procarparts guages in the cluster. ive got them they arent too bad but i would reccomend painting the needles a different color though. the lights at the top of the cluster mess it up a little and yes you can change the bulbs but keep in mind that the cover is blue and you would have to knock it out if you want a different color. oh and the guages arent super shiny

    cool. If you knock out the blue cover in back (forgot about that) Will the light still refract as well or can you tell where the bulbs are placed. Ive got a few different sets. Ill have to play around with it a little. Thanks a lot for the ideas. Mike

    Im thinking white gauges like robs but at night rather than indiglo maybe a reverse indiglo with red numbers red whole marks, white 1/2 marks and a lite 3geez racing in the tach. racing in red 3geez in white. Ill play around with it and let you know how it works.
