Boost/oil gauges that look standard

[Olly20VT]

I did try a search but couldnt find what im after.

Im getting the cupra R gauge mount soon and iv read the fitting guides BUT i want a boost, oil temp and oil pressure gauges that look and light up the same as my speedo/rev counter.
Has any one managed to find a make that do them?
Im not interesed in ones that look good only ones that look as close to if not standard.
Do the cupra R gauges light up the sames as the dash? if so what make are they?

Any info would be good thanks.

what do you recon?

 

[Craig!]

Autometer Ultra-Lite, Autometer Phantom, Autogauge (One where numbers light up) and then theres Stuart Warner Gauges. All are worth a look.

Autometer Phantom and then put nail varnish over the bulb works a treat as you can just go over and over the bulb until the correct colour.

Or buy a 501 Type 6 Clutster LED from www.ultraleds.co.uk

This gauge in the orange setting looks pretty close to the standard cupra dials !!

p34ch3y is that a ultralite boost guage you have in yours if so where did you get it mate

 

[chrisbond69]

has anyone thought of them spa guages on www.spa-uk.co.uk they have red backgrounds look like the centre consol

expensive they may be but look close to stock dont you think

 

[Bogwoppit]

FunkyFin2000,

You remove the antislip mat and fit the Cupra R Centre gauge holder in place (About £10 from Seat).
I also fixed mine in place at the top on both sides with m4 bolts/nuts. You will need to remove part of the cubby hole floor as this interferes with the back of the dials. Hope this helps.

peter where did you get the boost gauge from i want that one in mine current one doesnt look quite right i dont think

Hello Gaz

Got my gauges from here:

http://www.autometer.co.uk/

Then click on the Autometer logo and a pdf catalogue should appear. I have got the phantom gauges fitted in mine. The boost gauge came with a t piece and boost signal pipe etc.

I really like the new Phantom2's, shame they weren't about when I got mine. (which are not in that catalogue). They look closer to they original clocks than mine especially at night, have a look on Autometer.com for pictures.
