I think VDO makes some aftermarket gauges that will match what you are looking for.
Good quality also, they produce gauges. and clusters for automobile manufacturers like VW, and some others.

Just installed Greddy Oil Pressure and Temp gauges - they look relatively stock, but are green instead of amber...

You must have deep pockets. Greddy gauges are not cheap IMO.

picked up my Greddy 52mm pressure for $150 and Temp for $100 from http://www.mvpmotorsports.com
(not too bad - you get what you pay for IMO)

The closest OE gauge I've found is the DEFI D gauges. I picked up my Oil Pressure for 130 shipped, and my Temp for 90 shipped off ebay. Not horrible prices. I'll have pics of my own in about a couple weeks, but for now this is courtesy of snail via search function:

Those prices aren't too bad
I agree, Greddy gauges are very nice, and most likely the gauges I'll be using in my car -- I just don't agree with the comment above that they're "fairly cheap".

are the defi gauges mechanical or electric?? i really don't care about the boost gauge being mechanical but the oil pressure is another thing. i don't know if i want oil in the cabin. also, would i need something like the greddy block adapter for the oil pressure gauge?
all the D series Defi gauges are electric except boost. you don't really need an adaptor block for the oil pressure gauge. you could use the T setup you can buy at autozone for less than $20. using that you can T-off from your stock oil pressure sensor port. i chose to run an AC Autotechnic adaptor block -i'm lazy. (if you get an adaptor block check it over really well and be prepared to debur any places that need it. mine needed plenty of work)

I definately recommend the Greddy block adapter - it is a very high quality piece, and didn't require any "deburring". Plus it came with TWO O-Rings to seal agains the block - no oil leakage at all...

omori gauges have adjustable light color, only set back is they're twice the price and i don't know where to get them.
(i think they also make greddy gauges or greddy gauges make omori)

good question - you can check out http://www.omorimeter.com - you might be able to find a dealer that way. They are hard to find, and expensive - that's why I ended up just getting Greddy instead...

I have found that the Omori gauges are really nice, but the needle does not illuminate very well.
The VDO gauges however are a perfect match. http://www.42draftdesigns.com sells them for good prices and with good service.
