Those guages look awesome and is what i'm looking for. Where can you get the DIN mount for the gauges though? Those gauges combined with a modified amber climate control, clock, and radio will make an interior that look better than stock

i got my DIN panel from www.42draftdesigns.com for $20 shipped. Nice quality ABS plastic. Hoping this will fit the bill properly, or else back to the drawring board!

Hey blonde, would you care to elaborate on this "cleaner" setup?

sure i would ,

i am going with the defi BF boost gauge alnog with the defi link display and the 5 sensors. the display will be molded into the dash and the boost gauge will be mounted on top of the steering where i can see all the time.

for more questions, feel free to contact me via AIM.

blonde-
question on your upcoming setup...

Instead of buying multiple gauges, i could just purchase a boost gauge, and have the rest of the readouts like EGT, oil pres., oil temp., etc on the link display? If so, this may change my direction.

that is correct serge. the only down is the price. give Adam a call and he will explain to you how the system works and he will be ablle to give you a price also.

ahhh, i see. The sensors are the expensive part. I believe i follow this. I would need:
Control Unit II
Link Display
Boost Gauge
All sensors

I can see how price can become an issue. Tough call on that for me.

Hey blonde,

Could you tell us where you got that din mount for the gauges?

Serge-I think the din mounts you linked me to are for VW's only?

I thought about the Defi link series, but i don't know if i'd actually use the features that it offers. I mainly just want to know whats going on with my car while i'm driving it.

http://www.machevo.com/debfboga.html Blonde are these the ones you are talking about . the Defi link look also great and are smaller 52mm compare to 60mm which would fit great on where the stock radio is located
have you also look at this gauges from Blitz which look great
