Looks pony, especially the cheap, tacky gauges that they fit. Very expensive for a set of mechanical gauges too (IIRC they're mechanical)

Check the PSI3 unit for a better option, or defis if you prefer analogue gauges that use electronic senders. The idea of 95 degrees centigrate engine oil at 6 bar + in the passenger compartment doesn't strike me as a good idea!

I'm selling a full on PSI3 setup - see the for-sale parts & accessories forum

wouldnt do it to a wr1. Best to get the defi gauge pack which have to be the best quality gauges on the market IMHO and can also be purchased to match your existing dials.

i like the oem gauge pack,i have one in my sti 03 and it is spoton,defi gauges look very pimp style while psi3 monitors require you to buy extra add ons top measure oil pressure etcand theearly ones are supposedly hard to see
they are expensive but i never paid full price for minne and did not pay for fitting-depends which dealer you use
