I just got done installing the Westach Dual gauge from Geno's and the instructs from Geno's were great. You should not have any problems with the installation. This is the first thing I have done to my truck and it went well, I am afraid this is going to start me down the road to BOMBing.

I just installed the combo gage and like it. The instructions are well written,the only thing I didn't like was it tells you to pick up your power supply from the cigar lighter and this source of power is"always on". I"m still looking for a wire that is only "hot" when the ignition is on (oops forgot this is a diesel) I should say when the key is on or in the run position!!
I bought the dual pod pillar gage mount because I also want to add a transmission temp. gage.

I've had that guage and the trans temp guage in my truck for about 30K and so far am quite pleased.

I installed mine about 6 weeks ago. About an easy a guage installation as there is. Good instructions. I have a '97 5 speed, so I used the Lexan filler "plate" from Gino's to mount the guage in the useless hole in the dash. The only problem I had was watching the needles when I should have been watching the road!

I ran this gauge for almost two years with out any problems. I upgraded to the TST gauges to be able to read the boost I was getting. I put it in a buddies 24 valve truck that is stock and it is still working fine.

One more before you go (or went). I bought mine from Geno's and really like the combo gauge. They replaced one when the EGT quite reading. However, with the new one on my ETH/DEE, the boost (or something in the gauge has a funny vibration sound when the truck is cold and under acceleration. It doesn't do it in 6th gear. Geno's is great to do business with. They treat you like a customer.
