Looked there, AEM are about the same price as Defi and the Blitz ones are more expensive than defi

Mine are low ball robbie, no comparison, 3 of them delivered to my door for €120, got the pod on scoobyparts for about €40 delivered! Now they are not a tap on defi, I know that, but I still have 3 gauges on my dash that work, i probably should have got the next step up in the prosports series but I didnt and they are on the car a good while now, I barely look at them!!!

Any chance you could post a pic of these? That's a good price and Id be interested in seeing how they look.
Thanks,
Dave.

If you want competition grade, quality gauges then Stack gauges are what I'd recommend. It's what I'll be puttin in my WRC rep.
Not your fancy Defi or Blitz... but if they're good enough for Prodrive to use in their SWRT cars... then it's good enough for me

I'm with ya joe, not a fan of gauges up on top of dash or hanging from piller
But where can they go
Should start a post on show us your gauges
I was gonna do it with the type r but didn't think I gave the pod to one of the lads
What about the lamco 3 gauge set for the leggy

lamco 3 gauges would be great in it
I have a lamco on the steering column wich I like
have 3 fk gauges on the dash bought them not knowing some gauges where useless
might aswell have 3 compass on the dash instead

Defi really are the best out there for a reason. As Colm said. A cheap set there and you might as well have kept your clock. At least one thing would be accurate.
These are a decent budget alternative

We can suplly and fit.
I wanted to retain a more o.e. look personally as keith has said. So went with a defi din gauge set and genuine brand new Subaru din pocket. Light amber as do speedos.
Very very neat imo.

They look the job Jamie and 7 colours in one gauge
Cheap about 60 each do you need a control unit to run 3 do you know
Not as good looking as the defi but as you say if good for prodrive

Area e550 for defi din. And e100 for Subaru din pocket.
No controler. In fairness. Who ever records.
And is water temp, oil temp, oil pressure.
So you still need sort boost gauge.
I have a sti genome 52mm boost gauge that will go where lamco used to on classics. (well maybe)

I dont think they need control unit Keith.
I think Defi's would look out of place in my own car... but I understand why lads like em!
Fitted in Colins Grp A car...
