Came across a combo gauge that has temperature, Fuel Level, Oil Pressure light, and the brake light with a Silver Dot. Is it something that someone made or is this a "real" VDO?

Real VDO

I have one in my car. They come up for sale from time to time. Check the usual sources - classified, craigslist, ebay, bird-board, etc...

Good luck!

If someone made it there would not be a place for the brake light. The ones I've had didn't have the silver dot because they came off of 74 and later cars.

Now you can remove that guage from your center console (assuming you have one) and replace it with an oil pressure guage or cylinder head temp.
