Gauges for frs?

I want to install oil temperature and oil pressure gauges in my car. Does anyone know of any gauges that look good and/or match the interior of the FRS?

300 something replies in there, should find what your looking for there.


edit* I also recommend the MTX-D, for oil temp and pressure.

Here's a very subtle and non intrusive solution I found.

Couple more pictures and a video of the Defi 3-Din Gauge. This time on my car. Very clean and very OEM look I think.

Defi is definitely the way to go. They match well, the quality is great, and the start up sequence is pretty rad.

I love how you threw away the stock headunit and replaced it with gauges and a 1 din pioneer!

Love your gauge pod! The placement is much better than with the Cravenspeed pod. Are you willing to make more and sell these? I'm not sure if the pods on the Cravenspeed are adjustable to change the location?!?
