Who makes "good" gauges?

Looking for anyone's opinion on who makes gauges that are "the bang for the buck". Quality and affordable.

Autometer, Dipricol, Isspro. These are the ones everyone on here uses.
www.dieselmanor.com has good deals on packages.

i ordered my isspro gauges from www.vulcanperformance.com and i can say thats you won't find those gauges much cheaper. and they light up bright enough. my dad has autometer gauges in his truck and they are much dimmer than my gauges.

I prefer the AutoMeter UltraLite IIs... they look great and have excellent night-lighting:

You need more gauges
I'm also looking for more driveline info, but since I havn't chipped my truck yet I think I'll go with the Juice with the Attitude display - kill two birds with one stone.

Thats the idea....but if you want some advice - go for analog guages - especially when it come to fuel pressure.

I'm running the DiPricol Optix series gauges. I love these gauges and everyone comments on how cool they look. I bought mine from http://www.usdieselparts.com, since they had the cheapest prices I could find for these gauges. Looks like they're not on sale anymore, but they are still a really decent price!

however, if you need the complete kit, it looks like hink and 95dodgectd found you a really good site! that's a really good price for a complete kit.

Do you want great service? A great price? Go Vulcan.

He has ridiculous prices on Danin/DiPricol almost makes me want to change out my Isspro's!

i have to say, the service from USDiesel parts was great, too. I got a call from them after I ordered the gauges, and he said they didn't have one of the gauges in stock, and that also I could downgrade my shipping, because I didn't realize they were fairly close to where I live. To tell you the truth, I have never dealt with a company that has done that for me before, and it was nice! Just my .02, because I'm sure Vulcan is probably just as good!
