New VDO '356' Gauges

They look like the gauges that Beck sells as well.  Give them a call for prices...ask for Kevin if you are in the market.

I looked at that link and tried to drill down for the prices but was unable to get them. On a side-bar it indicates how to search for a distributor.....

I believe that IM and Beck co-developed these with VDO.  Both of those companies can supply you with a set.

Careful though as these are 100mm (Correct OEM Size) in size and most of our cars have been holed for 105mm.

I also believe that the Beck folks offer an adapter.

Yup, I've followed the previous threads about these gauges, but this is the first I've seen them on the VDO site, meaning, presumably, that you can now order them from any VDO dealer.

Palo Alto Speedometer is the VDO distributor they show closest to me.

And no prices on their website that I can find. Some language about 'completing the checkout process' made me think you can buy them directly from VDO online, but that doesn't look to be the case.

They do show a side view with an O-ring included as part of the gauge, so maybe Henry just found a fatter O-ring with the same ID to install them on cars that have been drilled for the oversized Chinese repops.

Yes, the gauges can be purchased through us (Special Edition/Beck), Henry (IM) and also through VDO's largest distributor (N. Hollywood).

The pictured o-ring is just a standard seal and will not fill the gap.  You can use a 100mm to 105mm Porsche adapter o-ring, which is common on some 911s and can be purchased from any of the aforementioned vendors.  We also offer other custom options for adapting the gauges.

We knew that VDO was going to catalog these gauges, but were told they would still only be available for the 3 previously mentioned sources.  I hope that is the case, as we put a lot of time and money into making these...

Regardless, the pricing should be there same across the board and I would encourage anyone looking for these gauges to consider supporting the manufacturers/shops that help keep this industry alive and constantly evolving.

Thanks for the update, Carey.

I'm reluctant to say I don't need to replace any gauges now because I know as soon as I type those words...

"I would encourage anyone looking for these gauges to consider supporting the manufacturers/shops that help keep this industry alive and constantly evolving."

Exactly!  IM and Beck/Beck and IM came up with these gauges, and anyone on here who wants a set should buy them from one of these two shops.

I could not possibly agree more. I was looking for a nice way to say it, and there it is.

SUPPORT THE PEOPLE WHO SUPPORT US!

I agree, too.

But I thought Beck and IM would be the only sources for the gauges, so was surprised to see them in the general VDO catalog.

^ I figured you meant that as well, Mitch. Other guys might not be as aware of all Henry and Carey have done for the hobby.
