Looking for best prices for 3 gauge kit

Hey Guys,
I'm in the market for some gauges for my 97'. Who has the best prices on a <u>complete</u> set with 3 gauges,fittings and pillar mount? Any links would be great.
My new Tymar should be here this week, but I want to wait to install it until I get some gauges so I can document any changes that occur after the mods that I'm getting ready to make. My goal is to beef up my truck a little for towing a 5th wheel toyhauler.

Re: Looking for best prices for 3 gauge kit

dieselmanor.com probably has the most complete kit. Their prices may be a bit higher than ebay or egauges.com, but their instructions are incredibly detailed and the kit includes just about everything.

Re: Looking for best prices for 3 gauge kit

It seems to me that I looked at diesel manor and they only had kits for 99' and up.

Re: Looking for best prices for 3 gauge kit

I got my 3 gauges and pillar from egauges last year. They were the best deal I could find at the time. you will find them through ebay as well.

there is a great wrie up on this site (I think) for installing the gauges. It really is EASY. The toughest thing for some is if they don't already have the port for the Pyro probe.

There were places that popped up that you could get it all assembled for you, but I don't remember who they were and that isn't the cheapest way.

If you call them up, they will sell you a kit for an OBS for the same price as the SD kit.

Re: Looking for best prices for 3 gauge kit

It's been a few years, but at the time I got my guages, I found that e-gauges.com was the cheapest. I got a set of VDO guages that perfectly matches the dash gauges. Take a look at them & see what you find.

Summit was the cheapest I could find a couple years ago. They sell a kit, but it was cheaper to order the mount a gauges seperate. About $275
