I have too many gauges.
These are 52mm VDO gauges from German and Swedish cars.
They are smaller than the 60mm Console gauges.
The best ones are the steel case early style. Originally in 924 and 944 early.
They are $25. The later plastic case and lens are a cheaper but functional design. Those are $10 to $15 each.
Separeted by type and style. I have sockets for most of them. May not have light bulbs but they available. Most will have the U shaped mounting brackets and knurl nuts.
Can get more pictures.
Senders are available from VW or VDO. I have some temp sensors.
Anyone making a test stand and need some gauges?

I would like to add a pressure gauge and a temperature gauge (with an actual scale), just as auxiliaries in the car. Will any of these work with the stock senders?

They do not work with stock senders. The stock pressure sender is only a low pressure warning.

Thanks. And just to clarify, you don't have either temp or pressure senders available that would work? I'd have to source those myself?

Bruce, I will take any of the metal case gauges you have, PM me with the number and the cost. I need them for a project

Posted by: bdstone914 Nov 17 2019, 10:00 PM

I want to keep some for my cars. Will get a count. What is your email so I can send a pic of what I have?

Do you have an oil pressure gauge with a matched sender?

Posted by: bdstone914 Nov 18 2019, 11:23 PM

Yes. What engine do you have?
The 0-5 bar (0-70 psi) is ok for 4 cyl.
The ten bar or 150 psi is better for a six.

I am interested, if you can also provide senders for both.

I'll PM you my addy

4 cyl. So the 5 bar would be great. I know you said $25 for a metal case gauge. How much for the sender?

Thanks!

Sorry for the delay in replying.
I will sell a sender for $10. I suggest getting a new one. Most of these seep oil. New are $40-$50 last time I checked with VDO.
