Boost Gauge... Help!

[MDS]

Does anyone know of a gauge that has the following characteristics.


I want a gauge that will look as similiar to the tacho gauges as possible...

- White Facia
- Black Numbers
- Red Backlight
- Red Needle
- Boost in BAR


This way I keep the OEM look.


I have turned the intenet upside down and visited a few shops, seems harder to find than a white elephant...



Thanks all... in advance

Was in Halfords the other day and they are getting PSI ones in rather than BAR, unless you can order BAR?
And they are £19.99.

Bar ones are a fiver extra ( see link in post 2 )

Nice one Bar looks better too imho.

AutoMeter Ultralite or Phantom are a decent match, and quality bits of kit to boot. Not sure who sells them in the UK, though - I got mine from the USA in a group buy on here years ago.

Any colour you want , press the button and it changes ( about 6 to pick from , red is all i use )

You can keep them on the red though i was told, ditch it my way

I've also been looking at these and they're not expensive from the USA - Marco if you're going to order 'abroad' you'd be better off with one of them.

Autometer Phantom - psi only

Yes...

Ive found these... look kind of smart...

Still havent found out the backlighting colour... not even the twits that sell them seem to know...

Metrika A270 Series.

I have the digital one which is supposed one of the best of its kind, but its so damn complicated to setup , I might go back to manual gauges.

Those Auto-Meter dont look all that bad... but the metric system cocks up my plans...

Maybe ill have to remember where the bars are in PSI ... if I dont have another way out.

I have been warned about the auto-gauge ones from a few people.

They are really not famous for correct indications...
