Default gauges £200 quid buget

my mate wants three new gauges for his skoda fabia VRS

he wants boost, oil temp and oil pressure, he wants to buy vdo gauges, which i think will look way too dated and i suggested some others

can anyone make any suggestions what to get, his budget wont stretch to defi's but surely would get some better than his, maybe autometer or summit?

any pics appreciated, i have nomad blue el gauges, but you cant get em anymore and he wants black faces with green or red numbers

does anywhere sell dials where the numbers illumimate, like the defi's but not digital, as i'm not to fond of the older style backlit gauges

Each to their own I supose. Still They're not defi prices so thats what you get. I do 100's of gauges, inc spa, defi, hks, blitz, auto-gauge, revotec, splitfire, apiro,vdo,stack, smiths,NOS, sw, lma, tim, nomad, etb, mocal, racetech etc etc and the ones shown are more than any others like a BF defi, as they have same colour bezel, and you only see them once wired up.
