it would be better if all the gauges actually matched! Swerve has one of the best setups out there if you are looking for something like that.

I have all my gauges installed now (I needed to add tach). Well I might add two more where the upper dirver AC vent goes

Anyway I will post pictures soon. My gauges are installed like Tom's are (in front of bezel). If I was to do it over again. I think I would go with Mike's type of install. Because you loose (3) screws in the process. Anyways the thing I like about my install is that you can see the grey ring around the gauges, I like that ring
Kind of a toss up.
