I have the autometer Z series.....also the Sport comps will match....i just took the light bulb that came with them out, and switched it with a green one from any local store.

The ISSPRO gauges match the dash really well. I've heard that if you put the blue and green bulb condom on the bulb, it matches it perfectly.

I have the Isspro EVA and they match pretty good. They have the back lit needle which the Autometers do not. I like the visibility of the Isspro better. I had the Sport comps on my 93 and my buddy has the Z series.. Sorta dull at nite.

I will have to try the blue bulb. I used the lite cover I had left over from my AM's and its close for the boost gauge. The pyro I didn't bother as I got the rainbow pyro.

I have a picture in my gallery of my guages at night. They do not have bulb covers on, but I like them. The pillar is filled with DiPricol gauges and the Pyrometer is an IssPRO EV Pre-Turbo guage.

I have Autometer Sport-comps in my talon, they are to dim IMO. Once I find the right CTD I think I'll go with some ISSPRO EVs. Style wise I think their needles match the Dodge cluster really well too, a lot better than Autometer does.

I'm gonna agree w/ BooCTD and say that Isspro EV's are the best looking gauge for our CTD's. I love mine and after mine were in, my roommate had to go and copy me and get some also. When will he learn to just listen to me 1st and save time and $$$$$$. HAHAHAHAHA!!

I ordered the Isspro EV white faced but they said it would be 4-6 weeks before I could get the fuel pressure gauge. I'm an instant gratification kinda guy so I went with the Auto-Meter Ultra lites. I hope they light up good the have the lite up needles.

Turbo Deeezle,

We sell more of the DiPricol's than anything for the 12 and 24 valve trucks as the night time green is a dead ringer, and the face design and colors match the stock dash very well. Plus you get an Inconel thermocouple and great accuracy as well. We have pics on our site if you want to look at them.

I have the Autometer Ultra-lites. I like the daytime view, but the lighting is horrible.

Knowing what I know now, I would have ordered Di-Pricols or Isspro EVs.

Better yet, a S.P.A two-in -one......

These Ultra lites are almost distracting they are Bright. I've just got the fuel pressure gauge in now with my other two TST gauges. I'm afraid with all 3 Ultra lites it will be distracting. When I get all three in I'll take a picture and post it. I like the gauges because the whole face is lit up and you can see the needle.
