How did ya'll get the top gauge to fit flush with the pillar. Right now with my dual pillar, the boost gauge is in the top slot and sticks out b/c of the metal poles sticking out from the back. Do I just need to file them down or is there another way?

Mine fits good and flush for the most, but you can file them down or cut them off with a Dremmel if need be.....

Okay, I've been trying to find basic descriptions of Autometer's product line, but can't seem to find one. From what I know (just looking at white faces):

Silver: Plain gauge
Ultra-Lite: Just a lightweight, plain gauge.
Lunar: Glow in the dark (green)
Phanton: White lighted ring inside gauge border/around gauge face.

And electrical are generally "safer" than mechanical so you don't have to start running fuel/water/nitrous into a gauge pod inside your car?

EDIT: I know that Autometer also makes an instrument panel replacement for newer Mustangs too. But to my knowledge, all they have is the Lunar series with the green glow?

Yeah, already went there. I found a retail site that gave a quick rundown of the different lines. Autometer's site was kind of pissing me off with all the animations and flash presentations.

If you are wondering about the red and green light, it is for the water injection. It goes green at 5 psi, indicating it's spraying. Red means resovoir is low.
