As subject says, looking for a guage to go in a Nomad pillar pod. Am keen on the Blitz ones but undecided which of the 4 types will work best. I'm moon grey by the way.

Anyone help point me in the right direction or suggest another brand? Want to keep it is standard looking as possible.

I also have a moon grey coop and went for a Blitz boost gauge with white dials as all the gauges that had silver dials were cheaper brands and all looked abit naff IMO. I think Blitz suits the silver dials well.

I dont know because I havent wired it up to the electrics. Not really bothered about it lighting up at night.

Looks good Dan, yours is a mechanical guage or electronic one? Think I prefer the needle motion of the electronic variety and might go for the white mirror Blitz unit.

Mine is the mechanical type. Those new Blitz mirror gauges are the best gauges you can buy at the minute for both looks and accuracy IMO not cheap tho
