Gauges for my A pillar

I am in the market for some gauges and need a little help. I am not too familiar with the various brands. I don't want to invest a ton of cash for top of the line but don't want junk either. I tow an 8000 lb trailer in the summer for recreation and would like to protect my investment. Any advise, or old gauges, welcome.
Thanks.

Re: Gauges for my A pillar

Check classifieds but I like my Isspro's.

Check with David at www.dieselmanor.com He was great to work with and had good prices.

We have the Isspro, Dipricol, and various Autometer. Isspro by far has the highest quality lowest cost. Call if I can be of help.

Re: Gauges for my A pillar

I love the look of the DiPricol Optix black faced gauges. To me they look most like the stock Ford gauges. I love for things to match.

However, I currently have AutoMeter Z series in my rig. The ones on the A-pillar (boost &amp; pyro) were in when I bought it, and I've bought two more to add in an overhead (trans. temp and air pressure). I grabbed a few green light bulb filters for them so at least the letters are close to the same color at night as stock. Only gripe about them is that with the green filter they are a little dark. But I'd rather have too dark than too bright on the back roads at night (hey that rhymes! [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img])
