Does anybody have any pics of a Autometer phantom guage, at night. Did a search and was only able to find one pic and it wasnt a good one.

Thanks
brian

 

I'll take one tonight............

just bring this back to the top so I'll remember

 

I cant ever seem to get a good pic of my phantom gauge at night. It does match real well and i get asked alot if its factory.

 

Thanks gator.

 

mines just a bit too yellow......... even with blue permanent marker on the bulb.......... i'll add more ink this weekend, see if that helps

 

halcyon do you have the green cover on? mine matches pretty good.

 

As promised, I went out after dark to take a few pic of my AutoMeter Phantom boost gauge. I can now understand why there are are no good pics

I put the green "sock" that's supplied over the bulb, and its a close match to the eye. Now the camera is a different story.

First, I tried with the flash...........complete white-out



Then I tried without the flash.........could see the speedo and the boost gauge in the viewfinder. But this happened



I know there is no useful information for you, but wanted to post anyway, so you would know I didn't forget. Now off to the sofa to have some brews and watch the race. Work in the morning, as in OVERTIME

 

Oh well, thanks for posting gator. Still not sure what guages I am gonna buy. Do the phantoms come with a green cover? Just wandering because a buddie of mine has an rx7 and has some guages, and they happend to be phantoms, and his were white. Thanks for the info

later

The Phanton seriers gauges come with a red and green bulb cover, so you have 3 choices during installation.

white face during the day

and

white face at night or
green face at night or
red face at night

 

Thanks man.

 

No problem, sorry I couldn't be of more help
