Fgx 2016 turbo pillar guage

[Ex chaser]

Just wondering if anyone has a pillar guage set up in there car it looks good but I don't know if I won't the light in my face when driving at night. I now I can just choose red as it seems to be a better night driving colour but still might get annoying after a while.

Yes, I got one.
It's not bothering me at all. Light is blue at night to match the rest of ambient lighting and it seems to be just the right amount of blue light, so it's not intrusive.
But thinking about it, I'd rather now have that turbo gauge on top of the centre dashboard lid (above screen display).
I think it looks better there along with maybe oil pressure gauge.

I prefer no interior light so I didn't connect the power to the light inside the gauge.

 

If you don't like it then don't connect power to the light in it or you could just install a switch and hide it somewhere.

 Wot brand guages  do u have hpfmnst the last I had were saas and the blue was a little bright for my liking so I used to go red they had two bright and dark dark was the go. I do like the look of the above dash but iv had them on my ba and fg and don't see a pillar style very often. I didn't think of that puffwagon good idea with the switch might see if I can mount it in to the pillar piece obove the guage cheers  guys

That's a nice blue, o you have the single pod I'm looking at the inbuilt dual one that is a replacement for the hole pillar. I'll be getting the blitz guages for shoure thou.

Iam gong to put a pillar boost gauge in the territory.  Wal from topend audio is going to custom mount it with a ss induction pod.  Will look sweet

 

as for brightness.  Mine will dim with the dash lights. 

 

I will post up a pic when it's done.  

 

Same gauge as this

Hmm looking at the blitz one I'm wondering if it would fit in looks pritty big I'm guessing as the pillar is made by saas only a saas gauge will go in or will other brand fit into it. And I'm also hoping it doesn't affect the curtain airbag should be fine.  Just if it's a little bit longer then the stock one the bag will pop it off ( just being paranoid I think)
