Not bad looking, but they do remind me of the AEM gauges.

Good timing with these, I recently had an old AutoMeter Boost gauge fail. I bought a replacement without knowing much about them and Accidentally purchased one with a physical connection (I needed digital I guess). Here are both gauges (new and old).



Fortunately I was able to return the wrong gauge. So I don't make the same mistake again, will someone please let me know if this gauge:

Will hook up where my old (digital) gauge was hooked up? Do I need a special plug? Back of my current gauge below (the one farther away).



Thank you!

I got these gauges. I installed them this past weekend. The quality is real nice overall, very accurate so far. The install is very painless. Took longer for me to uninstall my old spaghetti wired sport comp 2s then it took to wire up the tanabes and install it all in. They are easily visible in bright florida sunlight and at night. The dimmed version isn't that much dimmer than the regular brightness. That's my only downside of the gauges. They are definitely very attractive gauges.

And this was the first startup. I still have to weld on the o2 bung so the sensor for the wideband isn't in during the video.

This will definitely be on my radar when I get gauges this summer before getting a tune.
