Default Analog Wideband

I was looking at an Autometer Phantom Wideband and Fuel Pressure Gauge and I am debating on weather to go with the digital or analog. I know an analog would be a little harder to read, but the reason I was considering it was that it could be backlit like the other gauge where as the digital doesn't have the provisions for back lighting. Input?

I think that the analog gauge will look cooler and match the factory gauges and any other gauges that you may have, but as you mentioned be harder to read. I think that once you get used to it though, you'll find that reading it will be just like reading your speedo or tach...I say go for it IMO.

Depending on what other gauges you have, the set up you have them in.. Analogs are cool, but if you have 3 gauges in total, the digi one looks good if it is in the right spot..

Heres the way I have mine done, I am not sure if a analog one would have looked better in there or not.. I did the phantoms also, to match the SS cluster..

Yeah I'm planning on going with an SS cluster because I really like the look of them and the Phantom AM's are a perfect match
