What is the closest-to-stock-looking boost gauge?
 

Please, help me chose the closest to stock looking boost gauge. I would appreciate it if anyone who can give me some suggestion, would specify:
- black background (yes/no)
- stockish looking silver ring (yes/no)
- illumination color (green/amber...)
- needle color (white/red/silver...)

The pictures would be very informative (altough they don't tell about illumination). One more important data, I need the information for 2 1/16" sized gauges.

Thanks everybody!

search button is your friend :)

try the PFS and the Defi

There is also the RE Amemiya one but that is not so easy to find.

I have a Pettit (Autometer) black surround one that does not look out of place in daylight but (like all cheap Autometer gauges) looks like crap at night with fuzzy out of focus backlighting.

d-d-d-defi :)

Unless I am mistaken, the Defi silver ring one only comes in 60mm though so cannot be used in a steering column mount.

alberto:
I tried the search function but it isn't very useful. Pattern 'boost gauge' return every boost problem anyone ever had (that's about half of the threads around here) and 'gauge' is too general and doesn't yield the right results...

How about PFS? Is that one autometer too?

Check eBay right now. I think there are a couple. I will try to get a link for you.

VDO gauges match stock very nicely, and are not expensive. Get an orange bulb cover, and the lighting matches perfectly.

PM me if you would like me to e-mail a pic of my gauge installation.

However, I thought it was the red backlighting. My apologies. Still available for us imperialists that use PSI, or Metric in 2 1/16

The Autometer SportComp lin is a good match also -

Defi
 

The boost is the one on the bottom. If you have a 93 it would be a perfect match.

anybody tried the autometer nexus? I'd like to get a full set of them

check out autometer traditional chrome.. http://www.specialtiesperformance.com/ShoppingCart.asp

looks pretty similar although i don't know what the backlit color is

SPI as well

If you can find an older style of Blitz gauge, it is dead-on down to the backlighting color, indicator, number "font" and chrome trim:

There are some really cheap ($18.99) new SPI boost gauges for sale at the moment on eBay. Don't know if they are the same SPI gauges that PFS resells for $100 but they do look very similar to the stock gauges.

Which series of Defi is that? That looks real nice.

Defi D-gauge

kooool

Yeah like Anthony said the SPI looks just like a stock gauge...I guess it looks pretty much exactly like the DEFI.
