Title: Digital gauges
Post by: Brutus on March 04, 2003, 02:17:42 AM

I've long thought about putting these type of digital gauges into my 77. Anyone else given it any consideration?

Might be something to add to my next shopping list from the US.:b2

Nup - don't like 'em.  Much prefer some of the other guages (white faced for eg.)

Each to their own though...

Sure each to their own. Same way I don't like wood inside a Vette.....it just doesn't belong in my eye.  Just somewhere else for termites to hide.:22

I'd like the "cockpit" look, plety of analogue guages and buttons. Just gotta find some other semi useful reasons to put them in. Perhaps a vacume guage.

I kinda like that style of digital gauge.  

Mind you if I strayed from stock on a C3 I would go with the ever popular (and expensive) Auto Meter Pro Comp's myself.  I love those things.

I brought some Autometer gauges back with me for my son's car. He loves them! I might think about some for myself next time.......perhaps.
