List Of Cars That Can Have Custom Gauges Installed

shmogt
I mean use them as in actually look at them for the gauge purpose? They are so small I can't even see what is going on. I will instal them for cool purposes only really.

Ahh right. I usually just put them in for the same reason. :)
Though I should note that I stick proper gauges in the vehicle. I don't put a boost gauge in a car that I'll keep NA.
OP Updated with more cars as well as directions to find a specific car.

Boost gauge shows different boost levels of turbo up to 30psi. Using the Nismo GTR the HUD gauge hits full with all the turbos, but each turbo makes a different max PSI on the aftermarket gauge.

I've not tested because I'm still building up mileage, but I suspect the gauges might indicate oil and engine wear. Bad oil possibly will change the oil pressure & tempurature, and an engine in need of a rebuild might run hot.
 
The gauges are small, but I use them. Mainly the fuel, speedometer and the tachometer on cars that register kmh by default or cars where the fuel gauge doesn't work.

Yeah, they're eye candy, but also functional and useful. However I'm not sure if the water/oil temp and voltage gauges serve any function yet. The oil pressure gauge is cool, but probably doesn't provide much info that's useful.
 
It would be cool to know for example if and which cars get a gauge binnacle added also as opposed to them just being attached by a bracket.

Which can be mounted in places like the A pillar.

Even those that get them integrated with the standard gauges in the dashboard like the Shelby Cobra :)

Maybe the OP can bracket the cool little things like that next to the car name in the OP maybe :)

The Rev-Meter is useful for old cars without one though, especially when you drive without HUD.
I really like the little shiftlight.

Anyway, this came out of nowhere and is a pretty neat and unique feature.

I surely cannot tell you which car can have gauges, but I surely can tell you that the image above comes from a dodge Caliber. I have the same gauges ( despite the speedometer in KPH) in my car!

The best Mustang that would fit having these gauges can't have one. SAD!

(BTW, i mean the Grand Touring Garage Trans Cammer.)

Also, can we have a list of NOTABLE gauges (not like placed above the usual spot, i mean like a special arrangements list. EG: the Evoque has a basic layout, while the SRT Viper '13 places the dials in it's air conditioning slots.)

It would be cool a list with photos, the ones that are special like using vents are pretty cool, it would be nice to get a collection of photos displaying them.
