I found these awhile back while looking for gauges for my friend's old CJ6 Jeep.

Has anyone ever seen these before or used them??? I think they would be ideal with their dual configuration in a limited space such as in our 80's-90's IDI equipt trucks and vans. I know they're not cheap but the cool factor is just off the scale. Thoughts anyone?????

 

Yeah I've thought about this a while ago on a thread of my own. I was very surprised to see that low end aircraft gauges are actually cheaper in many cases than the aftermarket diesel gauges. When I say "low end" air craft gauges, I mean they are not FAA standard so they can only be used in light home build "experimental" planes. What kinda pissed me off is in many cases, they are the EXACT same gauges sold by diesel accessory websites for 2-3x as much.

I rather like the look of this boost gauge:



The web is full of websites like this that cater to the hobbyist aviator that might not be made of money. Pays to shop around.

You have to make sure you are actually getting what you need though. Pyros typically come separate of the lead wires and thermocouple and not all gauges are back lit.
