How much effort to fit (I'm a novice)? Where on the dash do people put these?
I've seen people say that an oil pressure gauge is good to have, and I know I want a temperature gauge so these seems like a good thing to fit.

But the combined units tend to be v expensive - and if one part fails - then it doesn't look too good. Better with individual units I think - mine are on discreet panel alongside steering column - leaves general dash area unmolested.

Hmm, good points. I wondered about the combined unit because of the space, but hadn't thought what would happen if one side failed.
Do you mean discrete, discreet or both?

This is the standard gauge size, 2" or 52mm

Believe it or not the retail prices for these are now £75

BOTH !! It's on it's own - and it's hidden away from view!
