The genuine aux guages are expensive and they hold their value well, I payed over £100 for my 3. Dont think you will get them any cheaper, just keep checking ebay. Anything with the word MPI in it means expensive :lol:.

whoops, i had some and gave them away for zero pennies. didnt realise they were so expensive :lol:

the proper mpi clocks wont be great for a non-mpi anyway. one of them will be redundant unless you fit an Oil Temp Sender as thats what one measures, Oil Temperature not Pressure. the only two i had working, in the spi i had, was volt meter and clock.

best bet is to buy seperate ones. Oil Pressure, Clock, and Volt Meter

Im doing the same, 3 on show but only 2 will work, Im not going to let anyone know that though ;). Only reason I brought them was so the red/orange needles on the aux gauges matched the magnolia clocks, good eh :thumbsup:.

I collected a set for about £30 including P&P on eBay - it's often cheaper if you collect the individual components separately.
