Automotive Gauges are the monitoring instruments that appear in your car or truck’s factory dashboard cluster. They provide readings on everything from temperature and pressure levels to speed and RPMs.

Accurately following these readouts is critical to protecting your engine and maximizing the performance of your vehicle.

At GlowShift, we have over 25 Gauge Types that cover a wide range of critical functions. That includes Boost Gauges, EGT Pyrometers, Fuel Pressure Gauges, Transmission Temperature Gauges and many other gauge types.

Sizes include 2 1/16” (52mm), 2 5/8” (65mm), 3 3/4” (95mm) and 3 3/8” (85mm). Install a vehicle GPS speedometer, a car water temp gauge, a temp pressure gauge and other automotive meters.

GlowShift Aftermarket Gauges are designed for any driver looking to replace faulty stock gauges or upgrade the look of factory gauges. Fortunately with a GlowShift Gauge Series you can customize the look of your monitoring instruments.

Decide between an analog or digital display, or opt for both combined into one. Choose either a black or white gauge dial and clear or tinted lens. Select from multiple color options for the look of the display.

Complete customization means that these automotive gauges can match the look of your factory dash, or you can create a brand new configuration that is right for your car or truck.

These automotive meters are also for drivers who want to install additional gauges in other sections of their application. If you want to run gauges on the A-pillar, dashboard, overhead console or another location, we have factory fitted and universal Gauge Pods that hold up to four gauges depending on the style.

Gauge pods are key to any driver who wants to keep their factory instrument cluster intact while adding aftermarket gauges to their car or truck.

We also have Custom Gauge Packages that combine your choice of gauges and vehicle-specific gauge pods. Build the gauge and pod set from start to finish that is right for your application.

To go with our automotive gauges we have optional Gauge Accessories that make installation even easier. This includes adapters, extended wiring harnesses, big line kits, expandable circuits and more. Additional benefits of our accessories include speeding up installation and avoiding major modifications like drilling, tapping, welding, or splicing factory wiring.

The gauges of a car or truck are essential to fine-tuning engine performance and trouble-shooting for leaks, temperature spikes and other critical issues. Add GlowShift Gauges to your setup and improve the efficiency of your vehicle.
