Sunpro Gauges?
« on: September 22, 2009 - 07:08:27 PM »
I saw some Sunpro Gauges on ebay, chrome panel, gauges had a white back round. I like that look.
Are those gauges any good?

I dont think they are a good quality and do not last long. I have heard from others that the water temp gauge can be off as much as 40 degrees either way.  Lots of people use them and like them tho. Maybe because of the price

Opinions vary, but Autometer and VDO always seem to be top choices.

I`ve been thinking these, but I cannot seem to find much feedback on them...  :dunno: 
 I love the looks ( of some )  and prices are good...
