pillar guages

[paul2508]

pillar guages ...is it the oil pressure and vacuum guage that are fitted into most fto's. if so, does anyone know where you can get these. also ,can you get them in white ?? i have only seen them in black

[colm_mcm]

only in black AFAIK, although I think they're from the Evo3 or something. the dials aren't removable as the body of the dial and the bit that surrounds the glass is all one piece bent into shape.

you may have issues with depth.

Yup, I've had mine out to fit dial rings.
In addition to you not being able to change the faces the units are poxy to get at, very little room for movement with the vacuum gauge.
Are we talking about the same thing though? They're not on the pillar

I presume he means the gauges that replace the volt meter and clock. fitting them in a pillar?

I found a pillar gauge in silver, but not white when i was looking on ebay last night

Don't really like them on a Pillar, they bolong on highly tuned cars with loads of dials or on scrotemobiles like Glanzas

the dials in the pillar look cool in white. one member mentions they are white dial covers from kmc,to match the other dials

plus i was thinking along the lines of the carbon gauges to match my kmc carbon ones.
oil pressure one looks sweet here
