I'd bet SW has been around longer, either way they look like a knock off. However that look is a good one, and they made these look nice too. I'd like to try them out sometime nice to get a change from all autometer that has been in almost every car I've had.

That plug looks identical to autometers, do you think steward warners leds would work with an autometer?

Good question.. if a SW bulb will work in a AM plug then yes.. I already know that a AM plug will NOT snap into the back of an SW guage (tried and snapped the plug).

I will try and see if it will go.

thanks, autometer doesn't make a clear LED, and the stock bulbs don't work very well with the CF guages.

Isn't the "Warner" in "Borg/Warner Trophy" somehow related to Stewart Warner?

How much was each little circuit board w/ LED's? I assume for my two big 5" gauges I'd need a bigger circuit board w/ more LED's on it. I just wanna get rid of the crappy bulb lighting that they came with!
