Im a fan of ISSPRO EV2 series gauges. They are the closest match to the OEM gauges that I have found. Not a perfect match, but relatively close.

When they were mounted on my pillar:

Look into the Performax by ISSPRO. Nice match and SOOOO EASY to install. expandable without more iterior work.

Just the way I went and am VERRRRRY happy.

Try the westach combo gauge and srt-10 a pillar available at geno's garage.I have this set up and looks/works great.

yeah idk about being easy to install.... wireing your own duetch connections looks like its going to be a PITA, im no electrican..... my performax's are still sitting in the box they came in.... trying to find someone to install for me.

maybe its just the intimidating bag of wires...
you have any hints? tricks?

sweet keep the pics and suggestions coming.

Do they make a pillar mount for two guages that enables u to keep the handel on the a-pillar?

Another vote for the Westach. Six years and no issues.

I haven't seen a dual pod setup that still retains the grab handle. Could buy the single gauge pod and mount a gauge bucket off to the side.

ISSPRO dash pod, check my gallery pics. They match perfectly to the OEM and wired into my dash dimmer switch.

aaa very nice, Ive been told the ev1s didnt match up very well but are quite a bit cheaper. Those look really nice and I think the price is right. Thansk for the info.

Their great, I love having them on my dash verse the A piller. The EV2 came out after I bought these. I got a great deal from Diesel Manor.

DO IT YOURSELF!!!!

Not sure what you mean... the hardest part was deciding how to make the attachments for the power etc. I will have to look tomorrow at the fuses that I piggybacked. I went to AutoZone and got the fuse piggy back they have (can't remember the name of them). that was the red and pink.

I ran 5 wires into the cab - the 3 to the gauges, the mode to set the dimmer (have not used it yet and might not) and the dimmer (tapped behind the dimmer switch)

I put the ESP on top of the fuse box in the driver's side. Sits a little crooked so that I can still read the stuff on the lid. I did have to drill through the lid, but it was worth it.

I was TERRIFIED to tap wires and all that, but HONESTLY the hardest part has been dealing with the extra input wires from sensors. I have lots left (thanks ISSPRO for the extra wire lenth)

I don't get on this site like I should but FEAR NOT... do the install... read the instructions BEFORE you start and then during. You will find all you need. Kinda fun to "plug in" to the ESP... nice little snap makes you happy inside (don't put them in the wrong hole-just READ AND REREAD) it works GREAT!

I can't explain to you how happy I am and that is NOOOOO BS.

Getting ready to buy new gauges myself. I'll tell you what not to buy...Commander or Scout. Cheap products that don't work out of the box. My personal experience. Nothing like spending $350 and having to do it over again.
