I had the 3 small gauge one on mine. It worked good but every once in a while I would get a glare from hell. It was just as strong as the factory one. I bought it from 50resto.com

I just used the cheap gauges from Oreilly, so every once in a while they would get water in em. I had oil pressure, water temp, and volt meter. I always left the volt gauge disconnected.. I had the light bulb wired up but the actual gauge was inoperable. I didn't want it to short out with the water in it. To wire them up I just tied into the drivers side amber parking light.

When you install it, make sure you properly insulate and tie the oil hose (if you use manual) because if you don't the windshield wiper arm will always hit it.

I would've just left it stock... but when I bought the car, the oil pressure gauge didn't work and I wanted to know how much pressure it had.

I was considering that awhile back, but ended up going with this ( actually got it off a member on here ) as I didnt want guages outside my car and its got more presentation value..
