gauge matching

i bought some of those white on black gauges from ebay, they look nice, but i want to replace the boost, volt, temp gauge with some better ones, which gauges match the ones i got from ebay? it looks like those glowshift would match well, but i kinda wanted a better brand name. I dont want to spend 200 per gauge thou. anybody got any pics?

alot of the gauges match great at night, defi, prosport, glowshift, etc. Are there any gauges that are mechanical with a led backlight that will match during the day and night without have the car on? I think the autometer pro sport II could be like that but i havng found a good picture of them.

avoid smoked lens if you want to see the gauge in daytime, I am trying the stri x-line

autometer has good pics on their site
pro sport II not a match

ES series has an red letter option that looks nice

That is actually pretty good, wish they had it in psi

Please search the companies given above. There are threads in the show/shine area that have a ton of pictures.
