Hello !

I got my Pillar Pod from the USA and my gauges from germany!

All is installed now. And i like it !!

My oil temp gauge is not in function.....searching for a sensor which will fit the Lightning.

The gauges are made by Autogauge and sold by RAID HP germany with their name on it. The quality looks good and the pricing is great !

Your gauges look KILLER! At day and at night. Those are the 1st ones i've seen with the blacked out lenses. Your truck is coming along nicely, keep up the good work and you'll have the BADDEST LIGHTNING in Germany! And by the way, who's the nice looking frouline? (sorry if I mispelled it) Cheers from the U.S Larry M.

 

Hi´O´Silver !

Thank you for your nice words ! I am really happy about them !
The Fräulein is my Fräulein

Thank you,

and many greetings from germany,

awww.. pretty soon you will get bit by the mod PERFORMANCE bug.

and you'll catch that porsche that flew by you on the autobahn!

 

My lower pulley and spark plugs are on the way to germany ! I will try to get a custom tune here.



but the second porsche ......

 

Sweet gauges and woman

 

Andre is a woman? Oh my!
Must be short for Andrea

I kid..I kid..

NICE gauges. Now get a 4# lower so that gauge will get past the 1/4 mark

 

Andre,

I've got to ask what gauge pod that is. Where did you order it from and what do you think of the fit? Did you paint it yourself?

I too have been bitten by the mod bug, and my 4lb chip, Predator with custom tune, spark plugs, valve body and deep transmission pan are all going on this weekend!

The crowd here in England were impressed when a pick-up ran a 13.3. What will they think when I pull a 12 out of the bag!?

I had an interesting 'race' myself last weekend - against a Noble M12 3R. You should have seen the look on his face when I was still on his tail at a GPS verified 151mph!

Cheers,

Joel

 

I keep coming back to look at those gauges. They look is really smooth, despite the fact they don't "match" the stock gauges. Does anyone know if they are available here in the states?
Thanks in advance.

 

Hello Joel,
Hello Coopersunc,


The Pillar was ready painted, really nice quality (looks like stock) and you will get it here:

http://www.gaugepods.com/ford_t.html

The gauges are from http://www.raidhp.de

But you will find it in the USA from the Brand AutoGauge.


ATTENTION:

You have to work on both parts.

On the pillar you have to clean the holes with a cutter and "sandpaper".

For 2003 and 2004 Lightnings:

You have to cut (saw) it a little on the upper side to get it fit right. Really easy and nice to do.

DEPTH of the Gauges:

My Boost gauge was ok and ready to install.

The Oil Temp Gauge and the VOLT Gauge i had to work on. The depth was to long so i had to take a 5mm (milimeters) (i think it will be 1/6 inch) away.
I´ve easily grater it away.

Nice job without problems.

For the Oil Temp i still looking for a Sensor which will fit the Lightning.

If you can´t find the Gauges in the USA eMail me

Many greetings,

André

 

Thanks Andre: really helpful.

I hope the planned Lightning meet in Hannover goes really well. I can't make it this time, but I'll be there next time...
