Can anyone tell me what gauges match the colour and font of the standard classic dash? I want to get some gauges to keep an eye on the engine but they MUST be OEM looking.

Here are some pictures of the Defi BF 60mm gauges - boost, oil temperature, oil pressure and coolant temperature fitted to my S202. 
The 3 gauge pod is an ATi and the single pod was purchased from Area 52 and then cut out to suit the 60mm gauge as they come blank.

[quote=monkeyboy173;9114470]Heres mine. Defi Oil Press, Oil Temp, Boost & Knock Link in a triple pod. Then Defi Water Temp in the air vent & Stack Wideband Lambda in a pod.
]Hi, how did you get that water temp gauge to hold in the vent ? Is it a 52 or 60mm gauge ? And was it a nightmare to fit ? Looks sound mate.

I just thought I would mention for those people who may be looking through this thread for some inspiration after purchasing gauges in the recent group buy, that I tried this colour yesterday and it really doesn't match the colour of the dash centre console 
. Its far to light, Now im sanding it down again 
. I guess i'l have to take out the cup holder and take it in to colour match it.

Could be that the blobeye dash was a slightly different colour so worth taking note of if you have a blob. Also worth doing a test first on another peice of plastic, wait till its dry to check you are happy. Additionally, mine is about to be taken out and replaced by an ATI pod, which is what I should have done in the first place as the fit and finish of these is shocking. Mine has warped in the heat!.
