Would this be stoopid? Gauge pods?

Someday,when I'm not so lazy and poor, I'll wire in 2 pods on the A-pillar, water and oil. Yours look great though! Pods are the easiest to see and use for me as I am very short(only 5'9). How hard was wiring in the oil pressure one and are those mechanical or electrical?

I don't ever really trust my stock gauges. Either they get stuck on my overlays, or just aren't correct. I didn't put these in. It did take 2 days though. OK, he got to my car as he was locking up the 1st day. He did say he probably ran 50 feet of wire. That's about all I can remember, sorry. That's for the sending unit, right? I have no idea, so am looking from summit where I bought it. I used the AM 5727 oil pressure one. It says it is mechanical.

It was cloudy as hell where I live. My car's top leaks, so I was trying to get it under my carport. Wasn't really looking @ the gauges. I think it wil be OK for me to view.

Also. I have removed the needles about 3 to 5 times. That is what ruined my stock clusters. Afraid this one might go bad as well. Hope I helped with your ?.

Eli, do your stock gauge overlays have adjustable color? The ones I installed from UPR can change different shades of green and blue so maybe yours do also.

Didn't someone ask about seeing them while driving? I can see them just fine. Also about that 50 ft of wire used, most of that was back to my gas tank for the fuel level gauge. Thought of that last night.
