Default What two gauges to get???

I'm sure many of you know how 94-98 Mustangs can mount gauges where their factory clock is. I was wondering if they made gauge pods to fit there for New Edge Mustangs? If anyone knows of a place, or has a link, it would be greatly appreciated.

what year is your stang? if it has the 2 slots for the radio/cd player, they make a plate that goes in place of the bottom slot. If it has the huge opening for say a 6-cd changer, you can get a gauge bezel that will hold 2 gauges.

Hmmm. I have an 03' GT. I'm not quite sure of the location you are describing. I have the 6 disc changer and all. Will this bezel let me keep the cd player and changer. Do you have a link or know where it is sold?

I vote for the pillar style..

When, if ever, I get $300 I'm going with the pillar style next to my driver window.. It makes people say..... Dam, he must have some money under that hood...... Well, thats what 'I' think to my self when I see a car with that style of guage set up..

I would possibly do that too after I went forced induction. But for now, what are ideas on the two gauges I should get? I won't be FI for a long time. Since I have an automatic, i would like a tranny temp gauge since heat is what breaks automatics... and I would like to know if I need to let my tranny cool down when running it hard repeatedly at the track or something. Any opinions (well of course there are... it' mustang forums)? Let's here 'em!!!
