New Defi DIN-gauge - 3 gauges under stereo

http://www.defi-shop.com/product/din/din_top.html

Pretty slick - has 2 temp gauges and 1 pressure gauge. As usual for Defi, VERY nice construction and design.

Of course, it ain't cheap. Did a little digging - price looks to be around $575. Ouch!

That price doesn't seem to bad considering you also get the gauges.

Sorry Dale, that has been out for a while, its nice, but I don't like that it doesn't have boost on there. Especially for that price. Also after having gauges there, I don't feel that is a very ideal location for line of sight while driving. Too low and you have to look down and away from the road. I tried it though.

yeah saw those a while ago.. don't like the look of it too much, gauges look nice but the actual design of the din seems awkward... especially the din position.

that and yes its missing boost, and those are 46mm gauges.

also, looks to be of inferior quality compared to the link gauges. these are like the basic D gauges.. no playback no warning.

plus the nice red/black face one is only available for rhd. nice going! lol

Those are sweet!! I haven't seen those yet. I would wait for the amber ones to be released though. Like to keep it all the same look, stock. The price is a little bit expensive, but a cool pruduct. You get what you pay for. I am sure, since they are defi, they are a wonderful product.

thanks,
-josh

Wish you coud pick any gauge tho... I have boost and H20 Temp already on dual pillar pod.

I would definately buy this if I could get 2 pressure 1 temp vs. 2 temp 1 pressure.

I would like to have Oil Pressure, Fuel Pressure and EGT or Oil temp.

too bad.
