Pillar Pod and Autometer Gauge Installation

Updated 06/01/06: 

•     Updated page links.. corrected info

Update 08/18/04:

• Also I just kept the MAP sensor for the boost gauge under the drivers side dash. Very convenient. 

•  Also got the dimmer lighting to work with the gauges by tapping into the now unused factory radio light, very handy.

• Lotek Piller Pod: http://www.gaugepods.com/300zx.html ($45) 
  
  06/10/04: Its in! Still some details to work on. Looks great.

  

  Status: I have the pod and gauges. 

  

  The Carbon fiber style do have nightlight. 
  

  • 

  • Guages: http://www.gadgetseller.com/gauges/ does modified A/F Meters (got one didn't like it. So I got the unmodified version)
    

• Gauge selection

  Status: I have the Carbon fiber series 30psi boost 4777, A/F 4775, and Voltmeter 4791 from Egauges.com. 

   

  Autometer
  
    Carbon Fiber - Boost, A/F,  Voltmeter

  I really like the look of these. They do  have back lighting. Not "glow in the dark".

  Lunar  - Pyrometer, A/F, Voltmeter (no boost gauge)

  The lighting is wired through the OEM switch and light intensity is controlled in the same way the stock dash lighting would be. When lit for night time use gauges emit a futuristic green glow.. They have backlight and can integrate with dimmers.

  
  I like these (because it might go with the digital green displays), but there is no boost gauge.

  Cobalt  - Boost, A/F, Pyrometer  - no voltmeter

  I like these for backlighting . But there not the green to match digital dash.
