Just wondering which boost gauges people have found that have similar colors to the stock gauges in the car when they are lit? That amberish glow.

I had a Defi Red Racer gauge for a while... The red is almost a perfect match to the stock gauges...

I like mine as they are "almost" a perfect match. I think its the same as ms3kar's...

Look at Prosport.

The problem with the Prosports are that when in amber mode, which matches the dash almost perfectly, you can barely see the gauge during the day glare on the face of the gauge. I have the Prosport boost gauge and I run it in white mode all the time.

I have a 60mm STRI Premium Gauge. Had a opening and closing ceremony and works great.

I have mine wired to run white during the day, but turn amber when you turn on the head-lights...

I have the Prosport Premium Boost gauge...amber matches perfectly to stock...though I have to run it white during the day and amber at night.

The 'roof' or cover or 'hood' came with the gauge. I am having a silver stripe added to it so it matches 100%.

I dont know about anyone else, I like my boost gauge to stand out so that I can simply glance at it and get a quick reading during a run. Just my personal preference though.
