gauges

well after alot of shopping around ive finally found a great deal on gauges

today i ordered the autometre gauge package with the pyro boost and trans temp gauges and they say it comes with all the harware and wiring needed to install it all

has anyone else used this package
and how easy of an install is it

best price i could find on gauges here in vancouver BC was 360 $
the local bd diesle shop wants 1100 $ for the gauges installed
i told the guy to smoke another one of his funny smokes
the prices on everything there seem way out to lunch
the 4 inch dual exhaust turbo back was 2600$
how can these guys get off charging people that much money for stuff like this
its crazy

$360 is pretty good, especially if the pillar pod comes with it. Installation can be time consuming, but isn't very difficult. Plenty of threads and links available to study.

For $1100 I'd expect my gauges to be gold plated.
