That's one of the Speedhut quad units I sell. You can find more info here:

4" Quad Gauge - Oil psi, Water Temp, Fuel Level, Volts. Auto Quad Gauges From Speedhut.

.... they also offer it in metric. If you wanted different gauges within it, I could maybe have Speedhut custom do that for a small charge. However, the smallest gauge they offer it in is a 4"... which doesn't fit within the constraints of an S13/14 cluster. But on an S14, you could eliminate the cluster all together and have me bond/mold my gauge plate directly to the S14 cluster shroud.

@broadfield

how accurate are those analog gauges would you say? pretty good? ive never heard of the company but i love the style of all their stuff. might be a stupid question but in my head i feel digital is clearly a better choice for anything especially temperatures

They are VERY accurate... taken from their website:
  • Internal microprocessor controls the pointer movement.
  • Digital high torque stepper motor ensures accurate pointer movement in racing conditions.

They also offer a LIFE-TIME warranty on all gauge electronics and 5-year warranty on the case, harness and sensor.

Still no epoxy or whatever that can fill in the holes in the lense without being seen? It really is a shame

I experimented with filling the holes and it was just going to be way too time consuming and with inconsistent results. If it was my own cluster and I wanted to waste 20 hours messing with it, then maybe. On top of that these clusters are getting so old that the lens is very brittle. I snapped 2 of them just trying to rough sand the epoxy down. So far you seem to be one of the only ones that is bothered by the holes... so it hasn't been in issue. You could also just not run the lens... which some of my customers do so they can have full time access to the buttons on the gauges. I agree with you though, it would be killer if there was a fairly cheap option that I could offer my customers.

@Broadfield,

Have you considered making a mold with those filled in and pouring new lenses? I work at an R&D lab over for an Oil and Gas company. My gf, she's an intern, used to work a lot with different types of silicons, urethane, and assorted pour-able plastics. I actually asked her to make me some molds for Kouki lenses and she said it wouldn't be a problem. I could look into it for you if you'd like. Just PM me if you're interested and I could dig up the info for you.

Are these gauges plug and play or does it require wiring?

Yeah, it's very expensive! It wouldn't be as bad if the lens didn't need the clips molded-in to attach it to the cluster etc. It would cost more to make the lens for each cluster than what I charge for the entire cluster. But feel free to look into it and hopefully prove me wrong

You make the lenses using a silicon mold. This allows flexibility in the mold for removing complex geometry like the clips.

Correct, but I need to know how much to make each mold and then how much to make each part!?!

Let me talk to her. Once you make the mold it will last a little while I believe. Shouldn't be too expensive.

Give me a bit to figure out pricing.
