should've done a search.....but since you didn't, - the Autometer lunar gauges "match" our dashes (slightly).

You can get them at RPM Outlet (http://www.rpmoutlet.com/lightning.htm) and REM (http://www.razorsedgemotorsports.com..._frontdoor.php)

RPM outlet has a matched gauge pod that is supposedly the same color as our interior.....

The cleanest looking is the lo-tek gauge pillar.But im not certain it will fit the 02 and 03s due to a a slight change in truck manf.Otherwise it is an exact replacement.

The autometer is probally the most common but the only draw back is the way it is mounted.It has 4 small pins that are barely visable and you have to hack into the factory one to run wires......so if you decide to take it out you need to get a new factory one too.

ALL of them are a biatch to get matched.The lotek comes grey.that is a BIG plus............... www.lotek.com ??
