Default Check out my custom gauge pods

I just got my car back from getting some custom gauge pods made for my s2k. I got the whole set of Defi BF Amber gauges. Here are some pics:

from left to right: Boost, Fuel pressure, water temp, oil temp, oil pressure, EGT

Nice job, but do you really need that many gauges? And if you do why not pony up some extra dough and get a stack cluster?

Edit: Not to be an asshole, but the pods in which the guages are housed look cheap and tacked on. Hmmmmmm. Prehaps you could flushmount them instead directly into the dash.

Nige gauges. Defi is very nice, i agree wit the Rollinmys2000. tacked on. But all that really matters is if you like them. Show some pics of what they look like at night, bet they look nice at night.
Nice rims btw.

Err... do you really need that many guages? It probably looks way better at night. I think guages only go well with extremely modified cars...

I don't think you have enough. There's room for at least 10 more across the very top of your dash.

I like them, and they do look a little tacked on, but see if maybe you can use some sort of vinyl putty to make them flush with the dash, AND paint them the same color as the dash itself...

And of course, dust the dash off and clean your windshield
