Default AFM gauges

Does anyone out there know of a place to get decent (preferably VDO) air / fuel mixture or EGT gauges? I'm looking for 2" circular ones preferably that are actually reliable enough to trust / do mild tuning with.

I actually saw that Napa carries many VDO gauges.
I was there picking up something and they had a display unit. I happen to be looking for that same gauge myself. I plan on replacing the clock ( doesn't work anyway )

I was also thinging, there may be a way to replace the worthless MPG gauge on the Tach with some sort of ratio meter needle..

That's a though actually. . .

Next time you're in NAPA, take a look. I'll do the same (might be there tomorrow for some Thread Locker).

I was looking for a VDO AF gauge a few weeks ago and I came up empty handed so I bought a summit brand one for $30. It doesn't look out of place in the car so I guess I can't really complain.

Which brand did you get? A lot of 'em look kind of stupid with all the digital LEDs and stuff (looks way out of place, especially on an early car), so at the moment my top choice is the Nordskog one. Supposedly VDO makes one but I've tried about an hour worth of searching with no luck.
