The ultra lite-II series are my favorite mostly because of the way they look at night.

Doesn't hurt that they are light weight too.

Not cheap but way cool.

Boese Engineering gauge clusters are made of polished billet aluminum. This pic is from their website in the installation section. It'd match nicely with my chrome glovebox door...lol

Do they make the same cluster in black?

Well I had posted on the first page of this thread with my factory dash setup with tach, speed warning and clock. I have since bought the whole cluster full of gauges from Speed Hut.com

I now have no cable hooked to the speedo from the transmission at all. The speedo is GPS and it's dead on the mark. I want to redo the dash and tilt it up some and have it flat like the aluminum piece ones.

Im torn between the Cobalt, C2, Phantom II, Ultra-Lite II, and Sport-Comp II...but im leaning towards the Cobalt or Phantom II

None are cheap but some of those are a pretty big investment of cash. The Ultra Lite-II tach I have for my Camaro cost more than I paid for my truck.

I would advise seeing all of them in person and functional including what they look like at night before making that kind of commitment.

Cruise in's and drag races are good places to see them set up and working to make an informed decision.

Exactly! I know they'll cost me an arm and a leg...I wanna make the right decision before I spend all that $$$ on my gagues...the reason I like the Cobalt and Phantom II series is because I have a dual A-pillar guage pod in my Z24 with a Cobalt series "Volts" and "Oil Pressure" gauge to match my blue LED cluster, while my buddy has a similar setup in his Tiburon but with the Phantom II series. I might just get a quote for all the ones id want and go from there just to see the price differences. But I like the positioning of the gauges and look of the Boese Engineering gauge cluster.

tdp67 · 01-18-2011, 01:17 PM

Wow! Now these are some cool guages!

tdp67 · 01-18-2011, 01:30 PM

I wonder what these billet pieces would look like powder coated black.

They may be able to do it for you, it never hurts to ask, try emailing them and see what they say...I got a fairly quick detailed reply when I asked for more information on their clusters

I agree...those are under their "Classic Instruments Gauge Options"

nibs · 01-18-2011, 01:58 PM

Here are a few that I have compiled on my computer for ideas... I have a few of the No Limit cluster, as that is what I ended up buying

Unfortunatly it isnt mine... Although mine will be almost identical here in the next couple months. I have the brushed bezel and will be using the Ultra Lite gauges. This one even has me thinking about using red backlights!

Classic69 · 01-19-2011, 11:55 AM

Im tempted to save ALOT of $$$ and just order the Ultra-Lite gauges with blue or white led's, but ive never really seen them at night, id like to...just to see what they look like

Well, if nobody does, then I will take a pic when mine are done

mahanian · 01-19-2011, 12:53 PM

One of my favorite Clusters is the Hubbard billet aluminum gauge panel with matching glove box. I bought a set and they are patiently waiting to be installed in my truck. They are expensive pieces but very high quality and well worth the money!
