nevermind 4th gen gauges.. heres nexus gauges!

pure and simple.. installed some nexus gauges to my thirdgen on my ls1 swap and instead of slapping a 4th gen cluster, (which i had on my swap) i've decided to splurge on some sweet auto meters' NEXUS gauges. check them out!

since these are still new and have multiple options with LED color and set markers. i ran through a whole set for about 1300$ pricey, but well worth it!

They are made by auto meter.

For comparison, I used autometer ES gauges, speedo tach full sweep fuel volt water and oil, cost about 1100

I like the CF panel. Can you see the bottom left and right gauges without having to crank your head around the steering wheel?

Re: nevermind 4th gen gauges.. heres nexus gauges!

Wow dude you have pretty much the biggest sleeper. I see that thing and I would of never guessed.

What size are the speedo/tach? 3'~?

I plan on doing my setup for the bird soon but not many good styles in 5'. The prices are kinda high for some but its worth investment when you have spent a fraction of that on the drivetrain.

Re: nevermind 4th gen gauges.. heres nexus gauges!

Is there a firebird version of that gauge panel or it a universal piece? I wanted to go with an LED dash but thats just sweet.
