I hope so, because like I said I'm days away from ordering one. My only other option may be the gagues that go below the HVAC controls. Does anyone know where you can buy that. Mike, let us know how it looks when you get it. Also which gague did you go with.j

I went with the Westach combo, just like MikeyB's set up, but with the SRT pillar. BTW, the guage is on backorder 10-14 days, so if you order from Geno's, call them to make sure they have them. I will post pics when I get them, but it won't be for a couple of weeks 'til I get the install done. Mike

I looked into mounting gauges in the cubby hole. Since having heated seats I would had to make a custom panel. I decided the gauges would be to low for my visual glances.

thats a great pic! do you have one at night that shows the factory IP and the Westach at the same brightness?

that one has the Westach gauge blaring out at you right in your face. maybe its the exposure, which is why I posted the question. Wanted to see where the westach was calmed down a bit.

Thats MR Hoss to you buddy!
I'm following this thread with much interest as I plan to order the A-pillar replacement shown above for my '03 in the very near future. Has anyone been able to confirm that it fits the '03 or is it designed for an '04?
I'm leaning towards a single DiPricol EGT gauge at this point.

Yeah, I may be with you there Hoss. I havent decided on the single Dipricol or the combo westatch yet. One thing for sure is I like the A-Pillar replacement with the grab handle.

I'll confess that I don't really know the importance of a boost gauge. However, everyone tells me that if I'm going to get the EZ then I HAVE to have an EGT gauge. An EZ, 4" exhaust and Ram Air III are really the only performance mods I plan to add to the truck, so I don't think I need fuel pressure and boost and all of that other stuff.
Of course, if someone else here knows better than I do and believes otherwise then I'm all ears....even though I can't think of a place I want to put three gauges. If I need all three I'd probably go with the BD X-Monitor.
