Alright, I'm trying to find some gauges that go well with my interior setup, I'm going for a mainly black / dark grey and possibly trading my white SE gauges for the black type, and the Megan Racing gauges would match pretty well in the day time and the night time for my interior scheme. So I searched on them and I heared about some weird electrical problems. Just wondering if whoever had them got past them and could tell me whether they're worth buying or not. Thanks.

I had a MR boost gauge and I had no electrical problems whatsoever. It's a nice product, and cheap too.

How do you see the unlit needle in the dark?

Defi has some black gauges. I think Blitz does too but probably not the price range your're looking for. Goodluck.



Btw suck is not a noun :nono:

i know for a fact that autometer has black gauges also! (i got them in my car)..... When it comes to gauges i wouldnt go cheap, because they monitor your engine vitals!

my turbo ls friend just pickd up the boost and air fuel ratio gauges' hes not happy with it; quality isnt to nice he said; and the boost repsonse is slow im assuming he meant the needle ? i only saw it lit up; and it lookd quite nice, as for as accuracy and performance; i dont know.

Whats wrong with VDO Vision gauges. They are nice gauges at a fair price.

I have the oil pressure, temp and water temp gauges. I think they work pretty good and pretty accurate...i had some electrical issues but got them all worked out. if you dont ground the black wire from the gauge at the same place the sender for that particular gauge is, the reading will be off and they will also lag a little bit. for example, my oil pressure and temp senders are on a greddy filter adapter on the block, but i ran the ground wire for the gauges to the frame of the car, once I put the ground wire on the engine block, everything worked fine

but they are a little hard to see sometimes mid-day since they have that tint to them, but at night they look good.
