Default Over Head Gauge Holder

Here are some pics of what is in store for the gauge holder. I picked it up today from the guy that makes them, please PM me for the info since he is not a sponsor here.

Here is the boost gague I am going with:


Here is the Fuel Pressure Gauge:


And the holder for the over head console:



Changed my mind on the gauges...going digital with a green LED.

Gauges can be found at www.nordskogperformance.com

Installed pics to follow later.

I chose these gauges becasue they will match the SS gauges I have installed. (thanks for the heads up grippy)

Those gauges are going to compliment your SS Cluster nicely

I was going to put N20 and Fuel pressure gauges in my overhead like that.

I had never seen that plate before today it's pretty slick.

I was going to use the plastic cover plates that I think come in the Tahoe or Suborban and drill my own holes.

Makes for a clean set-up that dosen't stick out like the A pillar pods.

I still don't know what to do with the gauges I want to put in the vette?

I might just put a boost gauge in the ash tray area?

Yeah,

Autometer only makes a pillar pod for 97-02

I don't like the pods because they block your view and are pretty close to your steering wheel.

I was looking at the center ac vents but there isn't a whole lot of vents in the C5.

I am still thinking the lower ash tray cubie?

I want to run a boost gauge and then hopefuully a Dynojet widebband gauge if they will swing a good price.(Retail is like $525.00 right now)

On a side note- I am currently polishing the outside of my TB right now to match the charger (It's a sickness)
