I haven't used those, but am interested in how they work out. I want to get rid of my blue faced ones and get some red ones as well.

i will most likely end up getting them. It says they have a 1 year warranty, so we'll see. I'll let ya know

Which gauges are you getting?

[grandprixgtx00]

gonna get tranny temp, boost (wont be hooked up for a bit ) and the third one I'm not sure. either air to fuel ratio, or oil pressure.

Aren't air/fuel ratio gauges on fuel injected engines pointless? Doesn't the computer read and evaluate the correct reading so many times per second or something like that? I tried one of those and it just threw readings all over the place. I think I hear of something like long-wave gauges or something like that that are meant for f/i engines? I dunno.

I got a volt meter for my 3rd gauge. I like it. Was a good indicator when my alternator starting going.

Man, I feel sorry for you guys having to use old style gauges mounted on the A pillar. Step up to an '04 and up GP with enhanced DIC.

I do prefer the gauges (and the interior as a whole) in the 04-up models, much nicer than the 97-03's. However, I still prefer the 97-03's exterior styling, as I believe them to be the best looking FWD car GM has produced to date.

Couldn't have put it better myself. If the 04+'s looked like the 97-03's, I'd upgrade in a heart beat.

Nah!


The latest Buick LaCrosse.

I've only seen pics of the newest LaCrosse, but if they look as good in person as they do in pics, I may have to change my stance as well Bob. That Lacrosse is a sweet looking car.

Yeah, if you wear brown slacks up to your belly button, a fishing hat, and happen to reside in a condo complex with similarly aged residents in FL!

Where have you been dude? The last time I checked the old retired fogies in Florida drive Cadillacs.

Buicks and Cadi's are in the same category - vehicles designed to cushion the fragile spines of our senior citizens. Ha! I will say that I think the CTS breaks out of that mold a little though. Those are pretty hot.

My dad wears white socks with his sandals.
