Looking for additional guages
«

I would like to add an oil pressure gauge, and a voltmeter to my 2001 Valyrie.
I have looked, and though Motosens has a nice looking classic styled line for the Valkyrie, the prices are pretty high. Has anyone used any other company or have any suggestions that include the complete kit, from the sensor installation all the way to the gauge?
Thanks for your help.

Not sure what you consider high priced, most out there aren't going to be inexpensive by any measure. I've had an Autometer(C-2 series) oil pressure, temp, and fuel gauge mounted for 8-10 yrs. They're not cheap but I've not had one minute of trouble with them either. And they're larger than the Motosens gauges.

I bought my volt meter from Overton's. Its a catalog for boats. I made a little wooden dash board for it, others have used sheet metal, and they look good too.
