You cant fit it yet cos you havent got your gauge holder yet.

No. You need a boost gauge, not a vacuum / boost gauge. Diesels don't produce vacuum so no need for a gauge to read nothing.
Of course, having checked Ebay all the sellers there seem to think that all boost gauges should have a vacuum bit aswell. Why they can't list those as boost/vacuum gauges instead I don't know.
Here's one I found (in psi) on the net, but it's Stateside. Stack do one in this country but it's electronic rather than mechanical, so worth considering if it's not too pricey. Take a look on this page. I think the white ones are the dogs..
hmm i waas after a smoked one with red lights to match the dash
i might have to get a vaccum one and just live with out it working on that part

Oh there'll be something about somewhere, but you might need to email or phone a few places and ask them. People just seem to think that everyone wants a vac/boost gauge and advertise those. There'll be standard boost gauges on the shelf but you'll have to find them.
is this available in black? I like this gauge, but i need a black one to match up with my Leon's dials
Just fitted mine today.....

Hi Andy,
How did you wire the guage up (wires for lights)?
Black to earth?
Twist yellow and orange together and tap into light switch?
Purple to permanent live?
