Best gauges?

Looking for the best gauges to get and where? I like the look of the Isspro but is the quality there? Looked at glowshift but the thermocouple looked pretty weak! What is first quality, and to get everything I need for the install from one place. Peoples input on gauges and where to purchase the complete package would be helpful.

I have the autometer ultra-lite II and am very pleased with the quality.
I got mine from truckaddons.com all 3 guages and the pillar pod. I got a boost bolt and fuel banjo bolt from dieselmanor.com to avod having to drill/tap the intake and fuel filter canister.

IssPro's here and I love them. Match the factory gauges pretty close too.

I got Isspros from DieselManor. You get 10% off everything if you were in the military at DM.

If you really want an all-in-one package then Diesel Manor is the place. I've ordered from them a few times and always received excellent service and support.

IMO though the "best" gauges are SPA's.

I have the isspros in the '96 and autometer in the '05, personally I like the style and quality of the isspro better.

Thanks for input

So far it looks like Isspro, I need to make sure I would be getting all the parts for a complete install as I would be ordering from Canada and it would suck if I was missing parts half way through the install! Thanks for eveybody for their input, it is taking the guess work out of selecting the gauges.

Not sure if you are planning on getting a fuel pressure guage or not. But if are and you dont wanna be drilling and tapping, I would recommend the tapped banjo bolt for the fuel pressure guage, and the tapped intake bolt for your boost guage. Just my .02

ya the SPAs are cool, I just wish they would use a different (read prettier) readout, espicially with how pricy I remember them being.

Are you talking about the Dakota digital gauges? Those have a funky looking readout, but the SPA's seem fine to me.
