The MY93-96 and MY97 double DIN accepts a Lamco triple gauge set, mounted in a black metal panel above the stereo, that screws to the double DIN cage.

Here's a pic of a MY93-97 with it fitted:-

Gauges come in white too (I swapped out the black ones for white ones in my previous 93 WRX, to match Lockwood dials in it).

I have an absolute mint set of Lamco's with the ever elusive and correct air temp sender too.

This is how I did my prefacelift. They're Prosport gauges.

Price of the Lamco's? The boost gauge only goes to 1.1Bar.

The set in the pics is something I made up and isn't for sale. I'll happily let you know how it was done.

Yeah the Lamco ambient air temp gauge gave comedy readings!

I used it to measure intake air temps by pushing the sensor into the hose between the intercooler and the throttle body. It worked very well and the readings compared to a much more expensive solution I have fitted now were virtually identical.
