. As for the Gaffrig brand all of their gauges today are imports. Nothing against imports but they are not built and assembled here in this country as the Autometer and Livorsi gauges are. That being said they all are good gauges you just need to determine which style or technology suits your application best.

So my Corvette is built in the USA and my wife's Lexus is built overseas.
My 10 month old Corvette was just towed into the Chevy dealer at 6000 miles because the slave cylinder took a crap and my wife just picked me up in her 2 year old, 26000 mile Lexus......

I am in the process of changing my dash and gauges now. I looked at AutoMeter but found that they ARE NOT sealed. May not make a difference but I did not like that. I ordered Gaffrigg last Friday. Platnuim 1-3 3/8 speedo dry, 2- 3 3/8 tach, 2-2" water temp, 2-2" oil temp, 1-2"volt, 1-2"gas and senders with chrome bezels all for 586.00. Hell of a deal.
I'll post pics when I can.

I always like to play devil's advocate.

But now you step into our realm of expertise and well myself as just a distributor of every major marine product in our industry will out of respect to Gaffrig refrain in posting the source and contacts of the Gaffrig gauges manufacture.
Now you may wonder just how I could know this but you see the same overseas source approached us to have gauges made for us. We chose to stick to all american made gauges for our companies.
I suggest you call Mike Shultz and get the facts better yet take a drive over there and take a peek at the manufacturing facility? I will be more than glad to have Mike livorsi post his manufacturing facility pictures on the web. Lets see if you can get those Gaffrig manufacturing facility pictures up here? Hey wasn't there suppose to be some new all Gaffrig store on the East Coast by now?

I respect your passion for the Gaffrig brand and Mike Shultz. I will tell you a little hint though? Did you notice that Gaffrig doesn't crimp a bezel on to their gauge to change the colors of their gauges? That they glue a colored cover on to their bezel? you know why? I mean really whats it going take video footage for you understand that I'm not making this up.
For the sake of Mike Shultz you should just call me and we could discuss, laugh, argue you name it. But in the end it's not fair for me to tear a guys company a part in the forums to prove a point to a single individual. I hope you can at least respect that,

Here's the quote....
"Auto Meter Marine Gauges are relatively new. Auto Meter Marine models include
Pro-Comp White, Pro-Comp Ultra-Lite Silver, Pro-Comp Ultra-Lite Chrome Rim,

Auto Meter Marine Gauges include the following features that their Automotive High
Performance counterparts don't:

[QUOTE=GrandTimes;2822567]nice jim, def post pics, I wanted to do the same thing to it when i had it, are you doing anything else to it ?[/QUOT
Hi Larry! The dash is getting done now (red). New gauges, bezels. New carpet. Took off old pinstipe on trailer and had Formula put on it. Installed drive showers. Can't think of any thing more. I'll take pics and post when I'm done.
How about your beast. Can't wait to see it, and take a ride. If you are ordering new gauges (gaffrig) my father-in-law got me a great deal. I'm sure he would you also. H
