I have a Redarc dual battery volt-meter. It's a very well-made product, but the "needles" are so fine that I can't see them without putting my face right in it... it's down near the shifter so that's a tad dangerous on the move...
You will need their illumination kit thing as well.

IMO a lot happening in less than 52" gauge, lost of options
Overpriced imo a nice set of VDO would do the same thing and easier ti read
I use Speco and had no problems in 8 years so have
04 ST 3lt auto, not enough Mods to keep me happy, but getting there

Same EGT + Boost, and Coolant temp and transmission temp. Being an auto and towing I thought it a good idea. I agree with the good gear...trust comment.

Yep, I love the redarc also, expensive but great quality. I only have one guage at the moment, EGT and Boost in a dual pillar pod. I also think the 3 in 1 gauge is too cluttered and prefer a bigger sweep on the needle as in the dual gauge. The enhanced lighting controller is certainly worth getting and one controller is all you need for multiple gauges.
