    Default Need recommendations for added gauges for 530/540.

    I've searched abit and they seem old but good and wanted recent info.

    I am interested in adding oil press, water temp and volts to my 530 that is planned to get a m60b40 swap soon.

    What fits and looks BMW-ish...VDO is obvious and I would prefer compact or even digital to minimize space.

    What have you guys done for this and any pictures.

    Can I just pig-tale/tap off of the exisitng water temp sensor to a gauge or does this need a special sender/splitter like the oil press sender for the original dash indicator?

    Thanks guys.

    i think blitz makes a digital unit for boost control that also reads all those in a digital format, but its pricey.
