Just some gauges I was able to get for free at work so I put em in. They are the exact same size as all the timing adjusters, aeroforce, wideband O2, etc. that everyone sells so I can always swap em.

I don't even have them connected yet. I'm just working on fitment right now, which is mostly done, as you can see in the above images.

What do you think so far?

nope. I smoke an occasional cigar but thats about it basically. I'd rather use a normal lighter anyway. That other little pocket that was in there was never used either. I don't know if mine was missing something but there was a gap on the front that small things could fall through under throttle.

just adding a couple night shots.
They came with interchangeable bulb condoms in the variety of blue, green, and red. The blue and green were much darker and more difficult the read than red so I'm using the red for now. It's not like I can't change it later. The bulbs are the same style as the popular 194 but these are only 0.7 watts so they aren't the brightest ones

The picture does no justice - It looks much better in person. As you can see, you really can't read either of the 4 gauges via the image. Most cameras are not great at photographing that kind of light accurately.

he's got the green bulb covers, but they do make it darker. I still use green covers so my gauges sorta match at night.
