2 x Dual Dials
1 to display Oil Pressure & Oil Temp
other to display Water Pressure & Water Temp
I've found the Oil one, just not a water one which does both... only seperate
Pref. ones which are illuminated!

Will any of these work on a diesel at all? And do you know anywhere that does the 3 gauge holder DIN shape to go in the Din slot? think I saw it in Larkspeed

Cheers. Does the fuel type matter or do they just run on cylinders, valves etc?

rpm on a diesel runs off alternator signal, any other gauge will work provided the senders will fit and you can wire ok. Ive got all the wires for mine in place, just need a pillar pod to do the job

Won't it be a bit tricky to have 2 needles on one analogue gauge?

Also sorry to hijack your thread but do you know if the high flow replacement air filters are worth getting as they won't bump up the insurance like induction kit but last longer and are meant to be better than a normal air filter

Oil One
Oil Pressure With Water Temp
Another Oil Pressure With Water Temp
And An Oil Pressure/Temp One
With A Matching Oil Pressure And Water Temp
Although I don't know why you would have two with Oil Pressure on. Sorry can't find one with water pressure and temp on though
