Autometer Cobalt gauges installed (pics)

**posted on NLOC as well**

Well I did them last week thanks to the help of Jason and JJ, but just got my website up to host pics. Nice to see the local L guys willing to help out the new guy with a truck and wrench with me. Yes, these gauges are expensive as ****, but I have a weakness for cobalt. It's actually my favorite color so it was an easy decision. The IC temp gauge STILL isn't here, but it should arrive this week to fill in the lower pod. Again, BIG thanks to the guys for coming over and helping.

#1 lesson learned? Teflon compound SUCKS. We had leaks on the fittings until I got pissed and went back to good ol' teflon tape on the threads. Now she's money.

These gauges are impossible to get a good night shot without a tripod, but here's what I could muster. Just click my Lightning gallery for the night pics.

I love these gauges, and they do look awesome at night. Now I need to find cobalt gauge overlays

I'll grab some pics of the underhood stuff tomorrow when I get a chance. Still playing with my website now. Doing a cold air kit and traction bars this week so I'll try and snag some more pics.

Have a good one gang!
Josh
