I'm looking for a combo gauge and was wondering what others here are using.
The dual gauge from Spa looks interesting but the name is impossible to search for on STD without getting a flood of posts on SPAcers.

Spa dual is 450 and includes the senders. Has alert and logging capabilities.

BD x monitor looks interesting but would be more expensive since it doesn't come with senders (edit - Just talked with BD. the price does include all senders so it's about the same price as the spa dual gauge)

westach makes a good unit (very old-school looking)- no extra features and it's just the gauge so it's probably going to cost the same as the other units once installed.

multiple gauges are great - I just don't have the dash space and still need to a fit battery monitor somewhere. Also am trying to keep it really non-techy.

It's definitly the most old school. I just wish it were back lit. Though not essential, I like that the alarms and logging that the other two offer.

Did you check out the gauge setup on this 300sd looks really cool but expensive!

and what do you mean by non-techy?

When I'm done it will look factory! That is a stock gauge pod from a vw golf!

Was there supposed to be a link or do you mean the VW MKII pod?
I like it (have been a VW fan for a long time) but I don't have that kind of space. The truck doesn't have much of a center console to work with. I'm trying to avoid taking up space below the heater controls as that's right over the cup holders and is valuable space.

"techy" may not be the right word because what I'm imagining will probably require more hidden tech than just adding a bunch of gauges.
But the intent is to have as few gauges as possible or at least the perception that there are fewer while still getting the important stuff (boost, egt, oil pressure, water temp, battery A, battery B, etc)
A row of gauges across the dash looks "techy" but if I can get something with alarms and readings that swap to show what's important at the moment, that would be ideal. That's more like what you'd see on a modern car with an engine monitor computer.

Yeah, I remember seeing that and also figured it was DIY. It's more or less what I'm looking for. The BD X-monitor appears to be similar (tracks 3 inputs) and the form factor might be able to fit in my ash tray slot. it's just $$$.

Do you have space above the steering wheel column?

Unfortunately, I don't have any space between steering wheel and dash. problem would be easily solved.

Here's another that looks interesting...
http://www.zeitronix.com/
their simple digital readout looks like a full featured product that can be put in tight places.
Also their "DashDAQ" looks really cool but well beyond my budget and is too big to fit anywhere but on the dash.

Have you thought about a "serial" gage... those take many inputs and cycle through them. They are all digital, but it meets the one gage requirement. They are pretty cool and can be programmed to cycle through all the inputs and flash to a particular reading if/when a setpoint is met.

popular brands are AEM and defi... although I think autometer has one too. I wouldnt be surprised if VDO makes one.

W123 Mods: 4 speed ** manual climate control ** '85 Kalitucky intake ** manual windows & full tint ** Euro headlights retrofit w/bixenon projectors ** 4 brake light mod ** Vogtland 50mm drop front & Lesjofors S600 drop rear springs ** 16" rims ** late w126 brake spindles, rotors & calipers ** full suspension rehab ** Bilstein HDs ** AL129X alternator & 1/0 starter and charging cables ** 300GD clutch/flywheel ** AFCO 80103N radiator & Earl's 41610 oil cooler ** custom block-off plate, remote oil filter & t-stat ** MW IP w/ tomnik's 6.5mm 'Holly' elements **

S124 Mods: 400E Rear subframe ** SL600 Brakes ** Late 300E 210mm diff ** SLK230 6 speed ** 17" CLK rims ** Vented RF Fender ** Facelift Hood, Headlights, and Lower Cladding **

Just found a BD X-monitor for less than 1/2 what everyone else was selling it for so I bought it. (fingers crossed)
it's one that comes with a dodge ram pillar mount. I'll either cut that up for my use or come up with some new mount.

mostly. Boost and EGT are universal (come with senders) while the optional third input can be configured to receive an add on module or tap directly into one of several Detroit wire harnesses. I'm going to call today to see if I can hook up a vdo oil pressure sender to it (gwagen doesn't have a gauge like the w123 does)

I went ape on this topic for while. I spoke with a tuner friend of mine, told him what I wanted to do, he gave me zietronix, I called and spoke with them. They could do some of what I wanted, but thier were all geared toward a gasser so I would always have a channel wasted on AFR. I found a really cool DIY and another company who CAN make you exactly what you want...yes you have to use their sensors and no you can add on later as the controller box for the LED panel would need not only a firmware upgrade but also a port to accommodate your new sensor input. Duh. But it looks like a pretty good cost / value ratio considering the options. I was going to and still might put energy into making one...I've got a couple of bud's who's handy w computers Wink anyway http://zada-tech.com/ seems like the cats pajamas so far on this topic

-1982 300SD, found out she has an '85 Engine, unknown mileage, redoing the top end and chain, head has been ported and polished, non EGR manifolds / non ARV turbo
-1982 300D, too many issues to list.
