Summit, Auto Meter, single or dual is all thats avail. Boost & fuel pressure in Nexus version off Ebay was the best price I could find for the gauges... expensive but I really like them. They can record runs & record peak values for later recall. Plus the colors allow a fairly close match to the factory dash colors.

DO NOT run a mechanical gauge inside. Yes, you can get electric fuel psi gauges. Autometer one along with several other companies. Try egauges.com, you'll be able to view a couple different companies/styles. Just make sure you get the fuel rail adapter for the fuel psi gauge (http://www.autometer.com/cat_accesso...st.aspx?pid=10).

I didn't run mine behind the dash. I got power from under the dash/power for the lights from the headlight switch. I ran my wiring in loom through the boot in the drivers door. I removed the battery access panel (side) and made a small cut on the bottom of the rubber that protects the door-car wiring. After running the wiring inside, I removed the triangular shaped panel on the side of the dash. I ran the wiring into the A-pillar from there. After verifying continuity, I ran loom from the fuel psi sending unit back to the door. BTW, I ran my vacuum line for my boost/vac gauge in the same loom and zip tied it all together @ every 12". I ran it under the PCM, behind the battery and then to the small cut I made in the door boot. I left enough to tuck inside and I put clear rtv @ the opening. Unless I point it out, its unnoticeable.

Pics of my AutoMeter dual pod:
I have a hole drilled into the pillar itself and all my wires run inside the pillar out of sight.
If you need 3, then you have to get a dual and a single unfortunately
I run a nitrous and the ricerific A/F gauge in mine, which will be replaced by the fuel gauge as soon as I hook my nitrous kit back up.

While I love extra guages and understand the need for them, be aware that in some areas the cops are profiling pillar guages, as "modified" cars. I think this probably applies to ricers more than us, but stealth is always a good thing.

You can get a fluid pressure part that will make it so you don't have to run fuel into the cabin,but this requires just as much, if not more, work to get it there.
Its definately worth it to spend the extra money and get electric fuel/nitrous gauges.

I [HEART] Florida.
We don't have "modified car" laws like some hippie states (Kalifornia) do
