Yes, they are very nice gauges. They look very nice, are very responsive due to the stepper motors, and the record and peak/warning features are very useful. The only negative is the non-factory backlighting of green with red needles. However, the quality of the lighting is very good.

I believe the cable running from the control box to the gauges is 6-feet. Mine is running from the passenger side of the tranny tunnel to a center-speaker gauge pod with plenty of slack.

And I'll get on my soapbox for a minute and say that a center-speaker gauge pod is far better than an a-pillar pod. I have a pod made by Frank (flyrx7 on the forum) and it is quality stuff, here's the link:

I have them too. They work and look great. My radio face can change color so I dont have to worry about not matching as much, and yes the cord will reach from the a piller to the center of the dash.
