    • Cool. How do you already have 39k miles I thought you bought it new around a year ago?

      Used to own a Firebird.

      • Looks good but where's the coolant temp, volts, oil pressure, etc? They don't have that in the stock gauges?

          If his is the same as mine, the coolant temp is on the LCD screen on the RPM's side. Just have to push a button on the steering wheel to get to it.

          Those gauges look alot better then the stock ones.

          • Looks good Kyle! Are the SC and TC clusters the same? Whats your red line?

            Oil pressure is unknown
            Volts are unknown
            Coolant temp can be viewed from the DIC (Driver informsation center) by scrolling through, using the info button the steering wheel.

            I am not sure how that will work with Kyles car as I doubt it has controls on the steering wheel. I bet he has a button the dash or something.

            • can you make the dash gauges light up with the same color light of your pillar gauges?

                Only coolant temp is in the DIC, as Mark and Brian said. Volts is on my pillar (see why I got a voltmeter?). I might do a dual pod cluster bezel (positions a gauge on each side of the cluster), probably with an interceptor and an oil pressure gauge

                Yeah, they look nice lit up. And yes, the DIC has mileage/outside temp, Trip A, Trip B, Range Left, Fuel Economy, Oil %, Coolant Temp.

                It's on my steering wheel. I have the cruise control/DIC controls on the left spoke of the steering wheel.

                That's my plan. Gonna do an overlay to match the Auto Meter Cobalts with blue LED lighting.

                Thanks everyone!
