Just bought '96 4x4 limited

Hi, I just bought my first 4runner and I love it. Previously I owned a '94 Integra GSR which I track raced in my spare time. But it wasn't much of a winter vehicle so after a few years of ownership I let it go. I posted pics of both vehicles in the Gallery.

The only dissapointment I have with the 4runner is its lack of gauged information. It seemed to me that other SUV's and Trucks have a more complete gauge cluster. I'm apprehensive about going 4x4ing with out being able to keep an eye on some missing important info. So I was hoping someone could give me some advise/reccomendations on gauges (type, brand, etc.) and A-pillar pods.

I have looked at Omani, Defi, and Apexi gauges. I would like to keep a relatively stock look so the gauges would have to be black faced and light up green (not backlit, like with autometers, etc.). Anyone know of anything?

Also, does anyone know where to pick up a colour matching A-pillar pod (I have the very common tan colour interior, and I would like the pod to look as OEM as possible).

Great to meet you all.:D

Congrats on your 96 limited. I have a '97 ltd myself.

There isn't much out there for the 4Runner.

I did add a custom temp gauge for outdoor temps.

Write-up on my site with many more mods.
 
try www.4Runners.org there is a write up on installing gauges the a piller rod. read your owners manual I found out that a lot of missing information is electronic and a warning light or information light will light up on the dash if a system or part has a problem (i.e. Transmission temp.)
