the center dash pod has boost and fuel pressure gauge, the dash cluster has water temp and oil pressure. an a-pillar pod will eventually be added with temp gauges for engine, trans, and diff. knowledge is power!
i did not angle the pod towards me. they're plenty visible, but a bit distracting. not like i really need to see my boost anyway. its just for personal amusement. if the fuel pressure drops off, there's not much i can do anyway other than shut the car off, but a car with no fuel pressure probably wont run anyway, so....this is why i think those two gauges are pure eye candy. i like candy.
the only thing that bugs me about it all is the night vision of the gauges. they're pretty dim with the green cover on the bulbs, and from the center dash pod, there's some glare on the windshield at night. reflections on the windshield bug me. oh well. i have yet to experiment with the bulbs. several people have recommended to me the LED conversions. as the old saying goes, your mileage may vary.
thanks for the compliment, dan. you know a good job from a bad job.

Nice installs John!!
How is the visibility of the gauges on the top of the dash?
Does it effect the driving visibility, say seeing the right front corner of the car any?
Did you rotate it towards the driver's position at all? Sorry can't tell from the pics.
Which gauges did you mount in it?
Thanks,
Dan
