Hrm, kinda hard to understand.. but the gauge bezel fits 52mm gauges... but they can be modified to fit 60mm gauges.

They look alright.. kinda cheap compared to OEM. If you do get the bezel, go w/ Autometer instead of Tsunami, b/c Tsunami blocks alot of the stock tach and temp gauges.

i have the AC boost gauge(dont flame, it was free and i am low on funds)
its accurate, i guess, but i have nothing to compare it to...it reads 5.5, which is what i should be running so its ok i guess... if i were u, and i had the money i would just invest in apex,hks or greddy gauges(thats what im planning)

well the A/F gauge is not accurate at all unless you're running REALLY rich or REALLY lean, and then it wont move at all...other than that, all it does is blink back and forth...just save up for a wideband o2 sensor and use that to monitor your A/F...
