DEFI RACER GAUGES sandwich plate

[Krone]

i am looking to install oil pressure, oil temp and water temp. i know for a fact that i need a sandwich plate but defi doesn‘t supply any of their own so i was wondering if you guys could recommended me some good sandwich plates that would work with these pricey gauges i‘m about to buy 😱

sorry I cant help with an answer but I do have a question for you.

I want to get gauges eventually but I do not want them in the AC vents . have you been lucky enough to find a pillar mount ?

I suspect that darwinsun13 wants to mount these into a 1 din hole

Mishimoto make sandwich adapters perhaps you can give them a try.

@ skengdR your best course of action is to maybe purchase a tegiwa gauge pod.

I am doing just this as we speak and have found the below which I believe will work

The sandwich plate - https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Mishimoto-Universal-Oil-Filter-Sandwich-Take-Off-Plate-Black-MMOP-TPS/201221376922?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649

and this for the dash - https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Honda-Integra-DC5-LEFT-Hand-Air-Vent-Gauge-Holder-60mm-depo-aem-greddy/273677800467?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649

As this one I was going to buy was and is out of stock still - https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Honda-Integra-DC5-LH-Air-Vent-Gauge-Holder-60mm-Standard-Depth-Gauges-Wideband/192271074773?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649

But this is all for the vent fitting not on the A Pilar, however to do that you could run any a pilar pod mount I believe, I have in previous cars but on this one I don't want to make holes in them.

Same

Where are you mounting your's and how in the end? A pilar or dash in a pod or the vent?

I am struggling to find a gauge to do oil temp and pressure as they all seem to have 4 in one which is fine aside from the fact it has a big boost one as the main one... I don't want boost lol...

I will go with an A pillar mod , not worried about holes as I will probably never sell the car .

I think I will go for a triple one , oil pressure and temp gauges are a must and Id like them to be have red backlighting .

What other gauges are recommended for these cars ? water temp ? any others ?

Oil Temp, Oil Pressure and Water Temp are the main ones that would be of use mate, I have no idea how to plumb the water one in though, the oil ones both work off of that same sandwich plate I linked above and so should be easy but water no idea myself :-(

thanks for your help , you seem to know a lot about these machines . let me know if you find out more about the water one.

Will do mate, not looked at that one yet myself as it's the only one I have never personally fitted to another car, all the rest are relatively easy, it's just working out the routing for the hardware etc on the DC5 I need to look at and how to remove the centre bit of the dash without damaging it

I tried for a couple of hours to find a A-Pillar pod fr right hand drive but seems to have no luck. they have plenty for LHD RSX though...
