I wear bifocals

[Archive]

As everyone can probable guess by the header I wear bifocals. I’m getting ready to order gauges for my truck. Problem……. which gauges are the easiest to read and what is the most desirable place to mount the gauges. If I use the pillar mount I have to tilt my head back a little to read them. I think the frog eyes in the center of the dash may be a little far away. With this in mind I’m kind of leaning toward the combo gauge from Gino’s, mounted in a single pod on the pillar. I’m not sure I’ll like this gauge but I’m open to suggestions as I’m sure I’m not the only driver in here that wears glasses.

Gohon,

Check out the SPA Gauges at www.performancediesel. 20m.com. These are the gauges I am going to get. They have digital readouts and are back lit. Very easy to read. Check them out!

I don't wear my bifocals while driving, and don't have any problem reading my gauges on my dual pillar mount.

I wear trifocals and am nearly blind in one eye and have no problem with the pillar mount gauges. It's the traffic I don't see!!! It's hell getting old!!!
