I tried that, it didn't work. Can you post pics and instructions of exactly what you did. Right now mine turn on with the lights but I can't dim them.

Sure thing, I've wanted to take a night picture for it just to show how it matches the color and everything.

Wow, who did you buy it from? Does it Matter What Brand Gauges you get or are they all basically the same? What were the prices of each item if you could. =) Thanks.

My friend has an import shop so he helped me out with getting them for me but you can order the gauges just about anywere. The best prices I found we at www.optauto.com. All three gauges are Autometer Ultra-lite gauges and the gauge pillar pod is also my autometer. It's a 3 pod full pillar.

Does the boost guage light up amber or green?

It can light up either, depends on which little slip you put over the blub, mine light up amber.

MazdaspeedZOOM-Are your gauges mechanical or electric?

The Boost gauge is mechanical, and obvioulsy the Air/Fuel and volt are electric.

Where did you splice the vacuum line for the boost gauge?

i must say that your gauges look great. i bought the boost and air/fuel gauges from Jegs.com as well as the dual full pillar. i am getting everything installed on Monday, so I am exicted.

So far, are you happy with the gauges. No problems?? I will post pics of mine once they are installed.
