Can you purchase the gauges that come on the 2006 MR for your regular IX?

All gauges are useful, some more than others and some are invaluable if you modify your engine. You drive at your own risk if you modify and don't know whats happening in your engine....

Anyway, Al told me that her considered the EGT gauge worthless because "all EVOs run cool"... Of course, other tuners would disagree. Personally I like to see what the EGTs are doing as I drive. Pretty good info there.....
Defi or autometer is what most people get. I like the DEFI, but they are more pricey than autometer. Just get an A-pillar to mount. Looks clean and can see them better when driving, than the factory.
Can get radio relocation kit to mount gauges higher (where radio is currently located), but still highly un-visable when driving.
