We put some of the racer gauges in a turbo M3 we just did.

They match surprisingly well to the rest of the interior.

I give them a thumbs up. The BF gauges are nicer, but holy shit you cant go wrong with the racer series if you dont want to buy the whole DefiLink system.

I will say that they will match the BMW even more so since the lighting in the 7 is a little bit more of a deeper orange than the BMW.
site says they come with a cup/mount....

thats why i'm hoping for some pics

any more pics/comments regarding color match of defi racer and the oem lighting?

if the color isn't a perfect match id rather just get the gauge w/ the white illumination so its not "trying" to match...
