Default Gauges for the Turbonetics ST kit

So I've finally decided which ones I wanna get for the z. (for those of you that saw the message about selling...still can't decide, I love the damn thing!!!) Anyways, wanna go w/ Defi gauges for boost, ETG, and wideband. Anyone have any ballpark #'s on how much I should expect for these and install?!? Thata way I know the shop is tryin to make some xtra moula off me?!?

Install - $100 (was having Utec & other mods installed at the same time)

Try gauges.com or Import Image for prices.

$100 for the 2 gauges and sensor install.

yeah - just black when car is off. I have the blue LED conversion from Acree, so I was trying to get everything to match. The Defi is just a shade lighter. Also, make sure you get the dimmers hooked up to the lights or radio, mine were forgotten and its bright as *** at night.

dimmers are there, they just have to be wired in. Directions say to wire to headlight switch, but if you have an aftermarket radio and still have the install manual you can wire it to the dimmer on the radio.

On another note, I don't really care for using an EGT gauge when using a wideband O2. For functionality purpose I'd personally rather use a fuel pressure, oil temp, or oil pressure gauge.
