The Autometer gauges are now made in China...hence our now making our own gauges. When we were getting 2 out of 7 gauges failing/car, we decided that was twice as bad as the Smith's 1/7 bad gauges so we decided enough is enough and made our own.

Now, think about your $25,000 engine...is it really worth the "look" of the original gauges?
