New CF Xtune gauges
After two weeks of going back and forth between work to my car tech David, I was finally able to get the gauges installed. I am pretty happy with the overall look of it. As far as I know, except for Nizmo101 I'm the only other guy that has this done. I ended up going with the Oil Temp, A/F and Volt setup. Pics posed are two night shots and two daytime ones. Sorry for the iphone pics, didn't have time to grab the other camera.
Let me know what you guys think ->

perhaps if they were made out of plasti-dip you would like them
all good man - i was searching long and hard to find anything close to the color of my car and it was useless so i went with the least obscene color combo.

I like the look, the idea, and the placement. the problem is that the gauges are just too big, too tall and too bulky which makes it look gaudy and cheap.. If they had smaller gauges i would be very interested in picking up a cluster of my own. I think if you changed the orange amber lighting in your car to white, blue, or indigo, it would make the overall look a lot better.
you did a great job on the install tho, so props.

I thought of doing that, but was worried that I would run into more issues. I am thinking of changing the dash lights to match the gauges but am not sure as of yet. Main reason why I did this mod is because I wanted something when I take the car to the track up north and because it was not an expensive mod overall. I do like the function behind it and I also could remove it at anytime so it's no biggie.

i was planning on doing that myself but found a member that could get both lights done for under $300. I think that's not a bad price since I have a one year old boy so "free-time" is a bit non existent for me.

the only problem i found was the location for mounting the pod and actually deciding on what gauges to get. i found the install to be a 6 out of 10 (and i am not techy by any means) - i did have my mechanic on call if anything went wrong.

I would suggest that you just do it yourself but, I can understand since you gotta take care of your boy. If that member your talking about is unwilling to go any lower than I suggest that you just look around and find somewhere that is cheaper. 300 is WAY to much IMHO
