If you want an actual gauge, as the previous reply said, take a look at Cravenspeed. When our new JCW Roadster arrives, I'm going for their nGauge product (http://www.cravenspeed.com/ngauge/) for sure.

If you just want the information, a ScanGauge II will be cheaper, and give you much more data to boot. Only drawback is aesthetic. We have one on our current Roadster, and I love the data but am not wild about the look. Hence the gauge-a-licious Cravenspeed nGauge! :-)

Yes the ScangaugeII is the most cost effective gauge setup, and easy to install.

If you want a real round gauge and needle I like the Craven Ngauges the best, I have a set with my scangauge mounted in my GP

The UltraGauge looks better, but at least for a while it was causing problems with our MINIs. (Specifically, the car would "wake up" after being parked and the battery would wind up going flat.) I though I had heard they resolved that, but I'd want to be sure first.

Oh, and I like the CravenSpeed mounting system for my ScanGauge and phone.
