Guages

[ryan_gwa]

I'm looking for a set of guages for my MY00 Uk Turbo. Im fussy, I would like the guages to be white, red needles and light up green. Just so it matches the rest of the dials.

Looking for a Boost Guage, Volts and Oil Pressure. Preferably to replace the centre glove box on top of the dash, not a huge fan of pillar pods.

Where/what I'm I best to look for. I know Defi's are all singing and dancing with the controller, but to be honest, I'm looking for something simple.

Also, where is the best place to take the oil pressure from? As the volt guage is simple, as for the Boost.

Many thanks! Ryan.

I would always go for Defi tbh fella.

Very easy to install compared to other stuff and still worth their money when you come to sell them on. They look the best too.

I cant remember if the back-light is green? Ive got a feeling they may be orange?

Not sure if the bulb can be replaced or not.

You can get defi's with a white face that light up green but something sticks in my mind that they no longer make them and they are quite hard to come by.

Ive just had a search and found an old SIDC thread, and it mentions that they dont make them anymore!

That's the Defi Link series.

Should be able to find them on Ebay or SNET secondhand.

I personally wasn't up for spending the Defi sort of money, I have autogauges ones and they work also a full range of colours to choose or you can even make them change colour in sequence either as a flick between colours or a fade in fade out ( but mainly have them white background green light and red needle)

Yeah Ive seen them, probably the one's im going for if they are the one's I had in mind, or a set of Smiths.
