when comes to gauges, and being acurate, quality counts... and brand name= quality usually when it comes to gauges.

not to bash on Daddy's, but the gauge quality was not there. I ordered a set, and once I saw the hardware store connectors I sent them right back.

Get Defi or Blitz. I've also seen a brand named "swoosh" that has identical packaging, documentation, and look to the Defi gauges.

the blitz and defi guages look nice but they are so damn expensive! Isn't there a cheaper alternative that still looks nice?
