Talking Latest interior mods to wife's Evo

My wife and I just had the following goodies installed in her Evo:

Alpine CDA-9885
Gruppe-S gauge panel
Defi oil pressure, boost and EGT gauges
Defi Control Unit II

Here are a couple of pics (taken at night time; new pics will be taken during the day):





The sensors for the oil pressure and EGT are not currently hooked up because: (1) I needed to order a 1/8NPT adapter for the oil pressure sensor and (2) I am having some modifications made to the OEM exhaust manifold and once that manifold is installed the sensor will be hooked up. My wife and I are very happy with this setup and would highly recommend it to all Evo owners!

You need to paint all of the bulbs on the climate control to match the rest of the interior lighting. There's a great write-up right here:

Otherwise, nice choice!

I agree, but after being used to the orange gauges of my Type R and the S2000, I couldn't understand why they didn't do all of the lighting the same color. I was happy with the way it turned out but it doesn't float everyones boat...

It wasn't a tight fit and we used some epoxy on the back side of the gauges to keep them secure.
