Black & Red EGT gauge?

Hi to all,
I'm looking for an EGT gauge that''ll match my stock gauges and HKS boost gauge (black background with red numbers). Does anymody knows which brand/model comes like that?
The Greddy and Autometer Cobalt are black, but have blue/green numbers.
Best regards

I have the Defi setup in mine, it matches very well however you're going to be paying a hefty price for the suckers... They are expensive!!!

those are for the electronic ones

the mechanical defi gauges are a lot cheaper
that is what is shown in that picture of 3 gauge in the DINs

they run about $100-140 or so depending on the retailer and gauge

theyre in standard too instead of goofie metric. but be warned theyre in 2.5psi increments. its kinda weird, but you get used to it


I got my defi d-gauge boost gauge for about $95 +shipping from this place

autometer "Z" series matches perfect ~$49. It looks stock at night with a red tinted bulb in there. I have my BG mounted in the drivers side air vent on the door and I can't tell the difference in color at night.

On the GTU I picked up I put two autometer 'phantom' series gauges (oil pressure/water temp) with the red bulb/cover for the regular bulb there is a definate color difference I notice. I don't really care on that car, but for the Turbo II I was going for function as well as a nice color match. It was also tax return time.

CAN'T YOU JUST CHANGE THE BULB or the bulb covering? my white faced boost gauge has a clear bulb with a little sheath on it that makes it blue.......
