Autometer Cobalt Gauges

[FreeJack]

Has anyone installed the 2 1/16 size gauges in their TR?

I like the oil, water, and boost gauges and wonder if they work okay.

Thanks

I have phantoms in my car, but I assume they are the same install wise. They work great.

Just saw these on popular hot rodding, they look sweet! I'm sure they're the same great quality as the rest of Autometer's stuff. When I get my TR I'll either get these or the Autometer Lunar series ones.

I just found out that the cobalt gauges are going to be in the range of $120 to $180 each!

What are they thinking????? I rather spend $40.00 for a VDO than $120!

Come on AutoMeter!

Damn, the Cobalt boost gauge is $169.00 according to SP Motorsports [Please note, this is the first place I found a price, I am not endorsing this vendor] Looks like they might be out of my price range. Anyone know of another company that makes these "indiglo style" gauges that aren't too ricey?

Just looked at theYear One/Next Generation site and noticed that the Lunar series (similar to the Cobalt gauges) includes both mechanical and electrical boost gauges and the the mechanical boost is $69.95 compared to $199.95 for the electrical. So I'm assuming the cobalt gauge is so expensive because it is electrical? Are all electrical boost gauges this much more expensive?

PS - Sorry for the double post, meant to hit edit and not reply....

The cobalt gauge is electrical, zeros itself automatically and has a peak boost hold feature. So boys, there are lots of bells and whistles with this one that justify its price...
