But my Civic needs that giant RPM gauge on the pillar!

A fabricated race car is one thing... but they look odd in a finished dashboard. The dial faces are too stark and simplistic. Smiths, VDO, Veglia, or others are nicer looking. Autometer is not really the same idiom.

Pft. It’s called an RPMeter. Get it right.

Why? they are quality gages. Had them in many cars and never any issues.

True, but even if you’re making a full race car, you could have Stewart Warner Gauges.

Mmmm

Those literally look exactly the same as the ones i had in my talon. Just add the autometer at the bottom of the gage

Then you have chosen wisely. It drives me crazy when people put Nascar gauges into old cars.

I never had anything bigger than a 2 1/16in gage in my cars

REAL enthusiasts know it by it’s full name; Motorcyclotrometer. Clearly somebody isn’t a real enthusiast and is just posing!

I completely agree. White faces with big font looks out of place in nearly everything. There are so many other better options out there for aftermarket.

Those look like they came out of an old John Deere tractor.

I prefer the Autometers, those are fine too I guess, really, Im no interior nazi.
