Prosport Gauges

Just wanted to show some pics of some Prosport gauges I installed tonight. I got them from http://www.prosportgauges.com/index.php and am pretty happy with them.
They are the cheap gauges and I got them because the price to ship way up here was only $4 per gauge!
As you can see they are about 10 times brighter than the stock lighting, and yes the dimmer **** is turned up all the way.
This is just a temporary location. Tell me what you think.

Looking good, I was thinking about getting a ton of the prosport comp's before but ended up going with autometer ultra-lites for the time being.

damn nice prices for full sweep electric gauges, and the illumination also seams excellent for the price.

I prefer electric and with this mod https://www.rx7club.com/1st-gen-archive-71/oil-oil-pressure-sender-adapter-solution-530083/ it was really easy.

it's just that my current setup is mechanical. switching to electrical isn't a problem since i have the block under the oil filter from RB. i want something smaller than what my autometer guage is but nothing small goes past 100. not sure how those gauges would hold up over the long haul with pressure 85-90psi above 3k.

The price doubles but you can get the prosport premium electric oil pressure gauge for $99 and it goes to 150 psi, same size.

how small is 'smaller'?
These are standard 52mm.
