Gage color??

[MMalinowski]

I am going to buy gages and want them to match my 04. 5 stock lighting. Anyone find a matching lite color?

I'm pretty happy with my Di-pricols. They match the factory very well. A little dim on the EGT but, still very close.

 

[MMalinowski]

where did you get the Di-pricols gauges at?

There are plenty of places to get them, but Genos is a popular one. I think it is genosgarage.com. That place is like one stop shopping. Get your gagues and mounts all together.

MMalinowski,



The white faced DiPricol's were designed specifically for the 2003 + Dodge's! We pushed DiPricol to make a matching gauge face with the same lighting etc as we felt the 2003 Dodges would be extremely popular, as they have been. Now availabel too is a color matched grain matched replacement A Pillar so yuo don't have to cut your factory A pillar handle off and then put an A pillar on top of it. Our A pillar uses the factory threaded mounting location and looks stock, they are available is 2 and 3 gauge styles. We also have dash top, under dash, and over head mounts that go over the windshiled rear view mirror in 2,3 or 4 gauge styles.



The newest item is the factory built gauge installation wiring harnesses that have all the connectors for the gauges pre wired and come with all kinds of connectors, heat shrink, firewall grommetts etc etc to complete the installation and save you 3 trips to the hardware store.

Ditto, what JohnnyH said, not perfect but close.

Does anyone know of a double a pillar mount with the handle still in place? or a double mount that will fit in the pocket next to the electronic 4X4 switch? I see a tripple for this area but not a doual. This would be my ideal location????

I believe you forfeit the handle.

Gauge color

I purchased the Autometer Lunar series gauges, and am REALLY pleased with



the matching illumination of both stock (04. 5), and the aftermarkets. I also



purchased the Dash Pod (Triple), and the only thing I dislike about this is that



it casts a glare (just below your line of vision) , which is really annoying



when traveling along a dark road. So I just wired a small toggle (alarm valet)



switch in, and can turn the "pod" lights off. My opinion is worth exactly



what it cost you. . Good Luck, John

I got a Westach boost/Pyrometer with the white face. I mounted it in a single pillar mount that has the handle. It looks great during the day but at night not so good. I had autometer guages in my other two CTD and had some problems with them. The company always made good on their warranty but it was a chore to change them. I really like this weatech guage. Anyone thinking about buying guages should look/read in issue 34 of the Turbo Diesel Register where the guages are featured
