Quad gauge installed

And it is beautiful...





It makes the rest of my car look old. The lighting is perfect at night. It functions great and the wiring wasn't too difficult.

Mark is very quick to answer all of your questions be email. (even when you ask stupid and obvious questions)

The next project is going to be LED lighting for the other two gauges and hopefully some CHT gauges from Dakota Digital.

Sure looks nice to have all that engine information and a "stock" look.

I'll be putting in some LED's in the other gauges as well to match the lighting. The lighting alone is worth most of the cost.

In case anyone wants to put LED's in place of the normal bulbs, they are BA-7s from superbrightleds.com. I spent about 15 bucks to get bulbs in the other two gauges. They are a direct replacement. 3 green bulbs, 4 white bulbs, and a blue one. Of course you could just go with white everywhere. Maybe I'll post a picture at night.

Mine is great but like the new face graphics.

Mark was stellar through all my questions.

That's awesome. Where did you get it and how much did it cost?

Wow. Definitely interested. AOL page? I'm kind'a computer retarded. Does that mean I go to the AOL site to find him?

Very Slick.

Seeing this almost motivated to at least hack an extra gauge in the brake warning light location of the std unit, but that looks Soooo nice...

It worked well and the lights were so much better than stock.

I sold the car 6 months ago.
