Hi guys I own a VY-S and I wanted the VZ binnacle gauges fitted into my car, I was going to get the HSV gauges fitted from my local Holden dealer but once I found out it was going to cost more than $600.00 and that I also had to get a custom pod made up as the VZ pod did not suit my car. I decided to give a shot my self, I got the pod made up and then I purchased a volt and bar Drift Ignite gauges. These gauges are more appealing than the HSV ones as they only light up once the car is started. Hope you like the result. :coolpimp:

Looks good. I also went for the aftermarket gauges due to price. I was much happier with the result. I currently have the oil pressure and vacuum although I am planning on oil temp and pressure.

What did it finally cost? If you are handy with making the pods, there would be a market on ebay, undercutting the other brands!!

djhan - Can you post up a better picture of the front of your car please?

What you've done with the front grille looks interesting...

djhan,

Where did you purchase these gauges from? Due to google being too picky I can't seem to locate a page showing the different types in this series.

If you have a website from the manufacturer I would love to browse the rest of this range.
