I no you said autometer but SW in the black gauges with the red led match very very close to the gauge cluster. Here is a link with the 3 gauges you want and the package comes with the triple gauge panel also. Second package down

Bringing this WAAAAAAY back from the dead, but has anyone tried the autometer ES gauges? They are supposed to illuminate red. I just wonder how close the red is to the EVO's cluster.

For the same amount of money you can buy the Prosport electric gauge, and it matches the stock red pretty good, might be a little bit brighter.

But you can wire them to be white during the day and red at night or always white or always red...i like it so far, and no problems

I am ordering the Boost (5903) and the Oil Pressure (5953).

http://www.autometer.com/cat_gaugede...id=3723&sid=67

I think that will go nicely with the Innovate LC-1 DB red gauge.
http://www.innovatemotorsports.com/x...roductid=16236

I think those 3 gauges will look good in the upper radio slot.

Does anyone have any installed pictures of the ES gauges?

I like the black lip on the gauges as well because I have some autometer gauges with the aluminum lip and when you look into the car that is the first thing you notice.

This coming from prosport, so I may just wait to see what they look like...

"We are coming out with our new Evo series gauges that we debuted as the SEMA show earlier this month. We won 4 awards for them and they are red. but all electrical no mech. boost. They will be available at the end of Dec."

That is what I heard from one of my friends with an sti, he did not like the prosports. I've always had good luck with the Autometers and I saw this new design and figured it would match pretty close. If anyone has any pics installed on an evo, post it up.
