Default Thoughts on Glow Shift tinted 7?

Looking for peoples experience with Glow Shift tinted 7 gauges. Particular boost/vacuum, wide band, and fuel pressure. Thanks

I always heard that Glowshift was junk so that was always my opinion of them. Then a buddy at work had a triple pillar setup he was willing to give me for next to nothing after selling his truck. I figured what the hell. I ran those gauges on my Cummins for over 2 years without a single issue.


Are they the best on the market? Absolutely not. Are they the worst? Absolutely not. Are they a good option for someone on a budget that wants to have something instead of nothing? Absolutely.


Just my personal experience. Take it for what it's worth.

All great opinions! I was also looking at auto meter. Do I pay the big bucks for tried and true or get something that might last 2 months or years, according to reviews from all over the Internet. I do have some time to save up. Had an autometer tach back in the day and it worked great.

ive had a vaccum/boost gauge from them for a while. it works but ive always suspected it was a bit off, and ive got an autometer on the way to replace it finally. i also used to run an electric nitrous psi gauge from them and it worked but the sender wasnt the best, i had to replace it twice due to a cracked housing and it would leak. i eventually just went back to a mechanical nx gauge mounted where the sender was.
