Hi All,

Just wondering what people have done for EGT guages on Land Rover Diesels?

I'm looking at fitting an EGT and a Boost guage to keep an eye on what my motor is doing. I've found a few stepper motor guages that look OK if a bit ricey.

Also where have you guys mounted them in the Discovery 2? I don't fancy drilling holes in the dash. I'd like something that looks clean and tidy. I was thinking about using that little panel above the rear vision mirror where the sunroof switches usually live.

Any advice would be much apreciated.

Cheers

Michael

Thanks for that Weeds, Very interesting reading. I reckon that unit looks like just what I'm after.

Cheers

There is a mob on e-bay that sell VDO gauges. Very good service I bought EGT and Boost gauge and very good prices. Just search VDO on e-aby.:)

Here's a pic in the Defender just as it's changing temp, hence why it's not so clear.
