According to evoscan, the gauges are accurate.. again, unless you messed up the install then it should line up perfectly.

I got 2 sets, one for mine, and one for my friend's. Each has it's own positives and minuses. The white gauges (which is on my car and also non-ACD) seem to show the needle much better at night, probably because of the white background. I'm used to the indiglo look from my previous DSM's. The black/White looks very killer, much like Lexus needles. The girls like the blue better though.. haha. It's sharp, but the needles don't quite show up as nice in the dark.

Either way A+ on the gauges!

The evos should come stock with gauges like that. Much more eye catching and visible.

Did anybody find matching 52mm gauges for the center console?

There are eBay gauges like the attached out there. Has anyone had any luck with so called ebay gauges?

I've had mine for a little while and love them. Looks way better than stockand easier to read, especially at night. And, to me, they don't look ricey either....which is always a plus.

Received some as an early xmas gift and installed them on Sunday. Look pretty good. Only thing of note is (and it's completely understandable) is that all the indicators like seatbelts, SRS, etc., are now obvious in their locations because the overlays are transparent so the underlying light can shine through. On the original gauges they're pretty much black unless lit. Completely minor detail and I think I've stopped noticing it already Otherwise gauges are great, and I'm very happy.

Had a question for Trustz or anyone else... what's the point of the overlays for the turn signal area? Since they're not lit and for the issue in the previous paragraph I opted to leave them out. I'm guessing they're there for the sake of completeness?

Thanks for ordering my gauges. Those overlays for turn signal area is just I thought that the color of my black gauges may be a bit different than stock one, so I also include in the kit, but looks like you may NOT needed them at all, since the black color match ok. thanks

Just ordered a set of these gauges the other day, and excited to get them.. Now my mission is to find the perfect matching Boost/EGT/OIL gauges that will compliment them...

So far i think these might do the trick, has anyone had any experience with them?

Thanks
