best looking/quality white faced guages?

fiveohpatrol · 02-04-2002, 12:05 AM

I'll be getting some white faced guages soon and was seein what ones you guys reccomend. I have the Autometer Ford Racing design Tach, oil press. and water temp guages and my stock tack and speedo guages just arent cutting it being black.

I've heard both MAC and Speedware are good. What about APC?, they seem to be more of kinda a ricer company

what do you guys have? do you like them? whats the price?

by the way, i have a pre-airbag 88 car. some companies dont make them for pre 87-89's

thanks guys

I have MAC's.

They are great, the quality is A+

I also have an 88, they installed fine, but you will need a 140MPH speedo.

Those look great, did you just buy the ones that say they are for 90-up and just use them anyway?

I think I saw your picture on another post a little while back but couldnt remember your username to ask what ones they were.

Were you the one that used Testors model paint on the needles? If so whats the name of the color? Flourescent Orange or something like that?

luckily my car came with a 140mph speedo. It's an ex-pig cruiser

Yeah that was me.

I used Testor paint, not sure of the name. The color matches AutoMeter exactly.

I just bought the 1990 ones, and installed them. They worked fine.
