Price for the Marshall gauges when I purchased them last year for both a boost/vac and water temp both electric was just under $150. I ended up spending more on the mounts and adapters then I did for the gauges.

Not a huge fan of the yellow, but that looks pretty damned sharp.

Oh, I know that! Most of my driving is in a small town with tons of traffic lights. I'm averaging 24mpg per tank, which is just 1mpg more than the rated city MPG for the MINI Cooper S! Yucky.

Here are some that I took on my iPhone recently. The quality makes me want to cry . I apologize and am a little embarrassed.

This is before my TSW's and with my Team Dynamics rims.



About 300 miles after the TSW's...



Edit: Here's another one before the TSW's...

Thanks I do like the fact that they look like they were there all along. Lighting and faces match.

Thanks! I'll be posting some more photos soon, when I get a chance to actually use some skill.

The wheels are Team Dynamics Pro Race 2 in high power silver; 17x7 with 205/45/17 rubber; I think they weigh about 17lbs. I got mine from Aaron at Outmotoring. PM me if you want any more details!

Alright, I finally got around to hunting down some awesome light on campus. Seeing as it's almost 2am. Don't expect much of the tone jobs. I'll be re-toning them soon.
