mounted a few gauges

let me know what you think. i only went with phantoms cuz i was given the tach and EGT which is about $400 in gauges so i just had to buy oil pressure and water temp and i was set.

Is your car T-Tops or Hardtop? I ordered ANOTHER Triple Gauge Pod from Autometer For my 91 Z Hardtop and to my suprise this one does not fit even though it says it will fit a hardtop!?!? I dunno myabe my car is just 2 inches shorter than normal for some reason. Lol.

Looks good though I would take some pics of mine but I pulled everything out of the car and getting ready for paint, motor and interior work. Should be done in a year or 2.

ive never liked the look of a tach just hanging off to the side like that . it looks outta place. If you like it , thats all that counts i guess, i think it might look better if you put it in the dash.
