Have you watched the Nexus demo/simulation? I love the 'warning' feature.

Welcome aboard Autometer!! Great products. I'm with you Bowtie - I have been thinking the same thing. I heard they do have a "Custom Dept" that can make one off stuff like that. Not sure if that is true or not but I'm going ot look into it.

Sport Comp II smokes those gauges and is lit through the face. That is exactly what I am running on my car.

Thanks very much to all for the kind words! We're happy to be able to support this great community.

Bowtieracing, our OEM business is separate from our aftermarket instrument business, and generally has significant order quantities involved. The Ford GT instruments image that you're referring to are the actual gauges we produced specifically for Ford for use in those production vehicles. We are currently working with Ford, Chrysler, GM, Toyota, and several other manufacturers on different projects.

With regard to your question looking for something in a more "OE" style, a lot of our development efforts of late have been working in that direction. I would say that Vegas69's suggestion is an excellent one. Sport-Comp II instruments are one of my personal favorites right now. We also have just introduced our GS series gauges, which have cleaner styling and green LED through the dial lighting, and might just fit the bill of what you're looking for.

I've provided a link to this product family for your reference:

http://www.autometer.com/cat_gaugeop.aspx?sid=68

Further, I should mention that we also produce a Bowtie branded series of gauges that feature the same lighting as the Sport-Comp II gauges for GM Performance Parts. I'm out of the office this week but will try to post some images when I get back to my desk.
