Why? You have no need for them?

Those ones in particular look very tacky

I don't think there's any harm having oil press/temp gauges

Sorry, for some reason I thought this was posted by Jason x. No idea why, yes in this case there is a point.
I'm actually selling mine on eBay at the moment, they end today.


Point about these ones looking bit tacky still applies though IMO

Did think why you said i dont need them lol

was think water temp, oil temp/pressure. I have the water temp on my digital dash but it dont have numbers only bars. So that why that one is needed

see what you mean by tacky in a way but still i dont think there overly bad lol. Just thought they look a fair enough gauge for cheap

More thinking pointless because Jason has a standard car.

Why don't you follow me around in person?

I'd pay a bit more personally. There at different levels of stack ones, from 30 quid or so right up to 300 each.

I've got an AEM digital boost gauge in the 200. I definately recomend the AEM range, good value for money!

Don't see the point in having any more gauges than you need just looks boy raver tacky if you have a digi dash with water temp why do you need another guage for water temp? They both do the same job just ones in bars ones in numbers you still know when it's getting too warm etc , I have a digi dash in my cav with everything it offers wired up and then a boost guage and that's it iv never had an issue but that's my personal opinion I think filling dashes with gauges is a bit ott

I have a Prosport boost gauge in mine, going to get the oil pressure gauge next. Really nice gauges. They do a full sweep when turned on.

I bought cheap boost gauges before, they went in the bin the day after I fitted them , look similar to the one you posted so could be the same, worth paying for decent gauges

It's the simple display/design I like about them. Easy to glance at instead of being ridiculous.
