I'm looking to buy some digital gauges for my car and I'm not too sure on what type i should get. I want accurate gauges or very close to accurate but i don't really want to spend 160+ per gauge on AEM. I was looking into glow shift gauges but I've read bad things about them and how non-accurate they are. Any input would be appreciated.
 
Exactly, Defi doesn't make digitals.

Actually they do, it's not gauges per say, but it is digital and like I mentioned in my post, one screen shows everything.

One of these gives you everything you need, and it's recorded and you can playback results. Not to mention you get shift lights/speed/RPM, etc with the appropriate sensor. Don't clutter up the pillar and stll get everything you need. Also, less expensive than buying all the gauges because all you need is the screen, control unit and sensors. Like mentioned earlier though, if you want quality and a precise reading, you have to dish out some cash no matter what.

PS: I have the earlier version of this and love it, best purchase in terms of gauges as when I don't want lights flashing everywhere, I just leave that one on.

It's separate senders for each although RPM and speed is just a wire you splice on the ecu wires. All senders in a Defi system hook up to the control unit. So it's the exact same as having all the Defi gauges hooked up to the control unit except instead of being defi-linked to 3 or more gauges, it's linked simply to the screen.
 
I can vouch for VEI's great customer service.

I'm changing my gauge setup though, not sure if I will be keeping the VEI gauge, but I wouldn't hesitate to get some their support is awesome with any questions.

How long have you had them on for? Do they seem pretty accurate?
