Where'd you get the top one?
And forget about the bottom one...too pricey.

The top ones were a custom build (not by me or anyone I know personally), I'm not sure if anything similar is sold online. May just have to build your own.  Search around - that's all I did.

Do people try to spell words wrong, is that the "cool thing" to do?

I actually really, really like the second one, to be honest.  However, it says Alpina on it...and it's still way too early in the morning for my heart to take a shock like finding out how much it costs.

That is utter and absolute gold plated monkey shit expensive. Holy hell, who would pay upwards of two grand to have 4 little digital readouts in their center vents?

HEY WHY IS IT PEOPLE HAVE TO COMPLETE ASS HOLES TO OTHER PEOPLE WHO ARE ASKING A QUESTION . OBVIOUSLY THEY DONT KNOW WHAT EVER THEY ARE ASKING OR THEY WOULDNT BE ASKING.
DID YOU KNOW EVERYTHING ALWAYS AND FOREVER?
CHILL OUT ON PEOPLE ASKING QUESTIONS.
OR DONT ANSWER THE QUESTION KEEP YOUR MOUTH SHUT .
THEN PULL YOUR HEAD OUT
I never claim to know everything,
 its that you don't know s***..

Expect to pay anywhere from 750 - 850 Euros, depending on how complete it is, and the condition of the gauge its self- provided you can find one.
