We sell Defi, but none in stock as of right now. What are you looking for?

It's better to get 2 or 3 gauges, as you need the Defi control unit to operate any and all the gauges. The control unit itself is $105, and gauges start at $205 each. The CU allows playback, peak-hold, etc. For your car, perhaps boost, exhaust gas temperature and oil pressure.

no they don't need the control box. jesus guys he is asking about the defi D-gauge. they are orange backlight, they do not need the control box and you can try AMS and see if they have any or EDO which is the defi distributer. i swear to god i sometimes feel like people either don't read, don't listen or just don't care.

I just installed my D-gauge.

It's stand-alone, (No control box or sensor) but it needs vacuum tubing from the gauge to the engine room.

Its backlight is orange, and the needle is red, it's very easy to read at night, and the brightness is about right. It also looks good with stock instrument cluster light. It also has psi unit.

Well, my friend's digital camera has wrong time, though.
