you can always get the Craig Hardy 52mm Gauge Panel. that the one i got. look on my pro street page to see a pic of it. If i was you i would get electrical gauges. mechanial gauges are a pain and if you every have problems you are screwed. you will have oil all over. i also have the greddy oil block adapter where i put my gauges sensors in.
thoses glow shift gauges are not that bad. my friend has them and they look pretty nice. the glow shift are a little bit darker than defi gauges which make it hard to see in the morning. i was going to get the glow shift gauges but i wanted some thing matching me stock gauge.

run a search on gauges and you will find some more info for gauges.

i did it myself over the course of a few weeks and it wasn't easy getting all the wires run through the engine firewall

HAHA thanks for clearing that up. I can imagine my *** out there with oil everywhere trying to install my electrical gauges to that. Fck that would have sucked. Def sticking with elecs!

I know with the Defi's you need the defi control unit to use them. Is this the same with other gauges?

defi sells "link" units that require the controller and regular gauges that don't
