Show your Gauges

What gauges do you have in your IDI?

Where do you have them mounted?

Where did you buy them from?

Isspro pyrometer and boost gauge in a pillar pod.
Volt, oil pressure and coolant temp in an uderdash pod, turned over and mounted on top of the dash radio speaker hole.
Oil temp under the dash, looking for a new home since it is so hard to see.

Sorry no pictures as of right now.

I hope to reorganise things this summer and add fresh paint.

I will be sure to take pictures as I do the work.

Currently, stock dash setup plus a VDO pyrometer mounted (already there when I bought it) on the top right side of the dash pad above the instrument cluster.
I plan to add oil, temp, voltage and boost gauges sometime in the near future.
