Yeah, i must say this interests me too.
I am pretty sure i saw a 3 gauge pod for new age dash at TSL's whilst i was there the other week. I will be going back there in a week, i will have a look at what they got to offer as i am interested in a dash mount unit that replaces the clock.

I had Boost, Oil temp and EGT in my old car.

The EGT meter is essential if You tune the car

Am I right in saying that the egt gauge just warns you of lean running if egt's start getting hot.

Buzzer, you got a clearer photo of the surround than that?
The gauges i can see clearly, but how does it fit surround wise?

EGT = Exhaust gas temp

You will fit a probe that is included after the exhaust manifold. This will let You have an eye how hot or cold the car goes.

If You want a meter that shows You how lean or rich the car goes You have to install a wide-band Lambda for the most accurate readings or a knock link sensor.
