Matching Gauge And Instrument Cluster Colors

[byi]

I’m shortly going to have a set of gauges installed into my vehicle, I have the F6 gauge pod therefore I’m restricted to 52mm gauges, the only prerequisite I have is that the color must match the instrument cluster. I have complied a few pictures of members gauges installed into their T’s and would appreciate any suggestions of brands I may have over looked. Ideally the boost gauge should not show over 20psi.

The old favorites Cobalt, although they look a little busy for my liking

The Swiss Stepper gauges from www.ozegauge.com.au

im pretty sure that defi have brought a gauge out that is red on blue also..

check their website. im pretty sure they only do electronic gauges in the series though so they are pretty expensive

I would go the second ones, they look good and on their web site they have them coming in the blue soon, the cobalts would be my second choice

I've installed the Cobalt autometer gauges in an FPV pod holder - looks like a good colour match to the dash cluster, daylight or at night.

Congratulations, they look great Did you find that once lit the gauges are the same brightness as the dash or would you recommend that a dimmer may be required to properly match?

I have installed cobalt gauge in mine and it is a bit brighter than the dash gauges. It does dim with the dash dimmer. but is brighter than the dash all the way through the range.
