I sure wish they didn’t print their logo on the gauge faces - that is a deal killer for me. The gauges look great otherwise!

Re: Thoughts on GlowShift gauges?

I ran their air pressure gauges in my Duramax for my air horn setup. They were flawless, and plenty of people use them. If you like them, I wouldn't be turned off by the lack of responses. The diesel guys give hell to people running their Pyrometers on built trucks saying it's dumb to rely on a "cheap" gauge for a critical parameter to monitor. I've seen plenty of quality gauges fail too.

They have a 3in1 gauge I ran in my 1st gen Cummins D-Word. I liked it because it did Boost, EGT, and Trans temp all in one gauge. It worked great for me for the time I owned the truck but it did look a bit more boy racer than say Autometer.

They sell just the bezel, which is nice...
