Wait, where did the torque guage go? Maybe that's only available in the SS?

Personally I like the Idea of having the gauge package, yes they may not be exactly where I would like them but at least they are available. On my 4th gen I have aftermarket Oil pressure and Water Temp Gauges on the A-pillar, come to find out the oil pressure gauge from the factory reads between 10 to 15 psi higher than actual, I like to know what happening with my engine instead of finding out from the dummy light after damage has already occurred to the engine.

The torque gauge would have been cool but in the long run I think it could have caused a few accidents by not having your eyes on the road.

Are the gauges part of the RS package or a separate option?

RS is exterior changes only. The gauges should be available with everything but the base LS v6.

We have a winner! The LS will feature less options. This is an options that will probably surprise a lot of people with its price. Gauges aren't cheap.

I think these are the right gauges for the Camaro. They look so much like gen1. Nice touch. The volt meter actually does 2 things to monitor the condition of your battery and alernator. With the key in the on positions without the engine running it shows battery voltage. With the engine running it shows alternator output.

The gauges i thought, were standard on the SS, and if you dont want them, there is a cubby in their place.

I have Cobalts on my A-pillar - oil temp', water temp', and tranny temp'. Those d@mn LEDs don't dim well though, LOL. There's a reason they call it a dummy light...

I'd be a statistic
