I need to take another night pic... :notworthy What's up with your oil pressure gauge... :thebirdma

I do like the autometer ones...I would have got them but they started selling the new Simco's for 250.00, couldn't pass it up, also I kinda like the black needles. :notworthy

If those autometer ones were less than $300 I would most likely buy it. Especially since I got a whole bunch of graduation money. I cant justify spending almost $400 on a set though.

... maybe i can find it used or something. :sad10:

Just keep an eye on ebay, I bought mine under 300.00 but had to watch a while and strike when there is no buy it now or reserve. Trust me i do see them on there under 300.00

You do know that both sets of guages have the same internals (autometer internals = simco internals) from the same company....

All your really paying for is graphics and some lighting.

Yup...That's why I couldn't spend 350.00+ on the autometer ones...Plus I really like mine.

Ya they look almost exactly the same to me other than the black on simco and red on autometer. From what I can tell in the night pictures, the simcos are going to match the interior green better.

I think I like the simco better, but that pony that's on it.. how much does it actually look like the real horse off the car?

It's almost a perfect outline...I pulled up the large view of the grill delete and put them side by side...not very different at all.
