Defi-Link BF Imperial Gauges

Well, long story short. I had these gauges installed on a car that was totaled and i had to grab the gauges but leave all the sensors and wiring. Now i need everything back to get these gauges to work. But now the gauges has been discontinued and i have no idea how to get the wires back. I can't find a contact e-mail for DEFI. I contacted TEIN they can't help me. So any ideas? They are over $200 for 1 gauge.

I had bought some Defi-Link BF Imperial Gauges and i got into a car accident that required me to remove all the gauges but i left the wiring. I was hoping i could possible buy the wiring for the gauges but i do not know of any of the wires that came with the gauges because i had a professional shop instal it because i have no skills at this stuff. So now i dont know what sensors or wires i need. Maybe someone here can help me out?

I have..

Defi-Link BF Imperial 2 - Oil Temp
Defi-Link BF Imperial 2 - Water Temp
Defi-Link BF Imperial 2 - Boost Gauge

I need all of the wiring and sensors (basically everything needing to install) for these gauges and i am having a hard time finding what i would need. Please help me out.

Thanks

Sorry if I'm missing something, but the link I posted doesn't have what you're looking for? Or do you need to know which ones you need exactly?
Also, did you grab the main control box?

Yes sir, the link you posted DOES work and shows everything i (probably) need but since i don't know what i actually need to get these gauges up and running again i have to contact the sales people. The sales team has not responded to my emails since you posted the link. I will now have to wait for the holidays to be finished and hope they respond.

The question i was asking was basically does anyone know what wiring and sensors i need to have the gauges like they just came out of the box?

I had a professional install the gauges and remove them from the box, I am clueless on what was in their because i didn't bother to look because i don't have any experience with installing gauges or this sort of stuff.

Thanks.

the beauty of these gauges is how easy they are to hook up. there is only one link wire needed between each gauge. and then only one of those gauges linked needs a link wire to the control unit. then all the sensors are linked to the control unit. there is one input for each sensor on the control unit. and only one link gauge wire.

so if you had 6 gauges on top of your dash. you would need five 18inch link wires to link them together. and one 40 incher to link them all to the control box. then each sensor needs to be linked to the control box with its own link wire.

Bad news, Copy/Paste from their website. Time to hit the for sale section.

Production of Control Unit II Version2.0 (DF05002) was ended in April, 2010.
Production of Control Unit II (DF05001) was ended in June, 2005.
Production of Control Unit (DF01301) was ended in November, 2001.

Are you also still looking for which sensors you need?

Yes that is bad news... yes I am looking for everything I need to get my gauges working boost, oil pressure, water temp.

I cant find any wiring or sensors. I may have to just sell them so someone else can have them....
