Default Gauges

I'm buying the Scoob (Blobeye) a Christmas present and was thinking about a center mount 3 x 52mm gauge pod and gauges.

I am on a budget and don't want to go silly with the cost as I would like to buy more bits for the car.

The items that I'm looking at are...

PODS.

Or

Gauges.

I'm looking at boost, oil pressure and maybe oil temperature.
I think the above gauge choice are OK, maybe a narrow band AFR instead of the oil.

I'm wanting to keep the colour and design of my WRX dials, so at the moment these are the only manufacture that I can find, that fulfil my requirements.

Are these any good and are they easy to fit for a keen DIY'er.

I know that I'm asking a lot, but I honestly haven't got a clue for the best.

Can't comment on the gauges, but boost, oil temp and oil pressure are good to have.

You might be surprised at how far the oil temperature lags the water temperature.

I have the triple gauge hood in the middle link, good quality and very easy to fit. The prosport gauges from my experience are good value for money. Have had a boost gauge on the a-pillar for nearly 2-3 years no with no issues.
