These are the ones I got. The directions and customer service were fantastic. They match the stock gauges very well.

As for the sig, you have to post 25 times I think, before you can modify it.

Welcome to FTE, stick around, you will learn a bunch and have some fun.

Well, not to throw in a monkey wrench, but I got my DiPricols from ITP Diesel:

They're a bit more pricey, but they match the stock cluster perfectly and are backlit with LEDs (MUCH nicer!). Not sure if you want the cheapest price or the coolest looking...

Here's what they look like:

It is very complete, you won't need anything but the tools. The directions are great.

I ordered the ISSPRO setup and LOVE IT! I ordered the drill bit, and tap as a matched set so it was fool proof. I like the ISSPRO gauges cause if you look at some other brands, when they are at zero or de powered, the needle rests at different positions, with the ISSPRO gauges, they are 270* sweeps, meaning that they all rest at the same position and the gauges all have the same movement....guess it's hard to explain but they are just way easier to glance at and see where the needle is. The pressures marks are 5psi marks, the temp marks are 10* on the tranny and water temp, and the EGT has colors for the green, yellow and red zones for temps.....With the green bulb covers and red needles, they are awesome...If you look at the bottom gauge, you see the Air pressure needle is white, well they have since come out with a RED needle gauge to match the rest, but this is an old picture..
