Gauge housing

[zewar96]

Does anyone know where I can get empty gauge housing to put my own custom gauge in? I may want to sell them, so i may need a couple hundred. For now I just need 1 or 2.

You can't.

I've looked high and low, and the only source was a factory in China, but that required volume purchasing.

Your best bet is to buy surplus gauges for cheap, then dismantle them and use the housing.

What kinda gauge are you making?

crap, that wasn't the answer I was hoping for.

I have some ideas for much better digital vac/boost gauges than are out there currently.

I really hope some has a better answer than you do lametec. Not that I don't believe you (especially since i already looked in a ton of places before posting here), but mainly because I want to find some without ordering 100,000+.

Here's to hoping!!

Let me know if you find something, as I still could need them, although will probably make my own housings from scratch.
