I have a set of three lahmco gauges that came fitted in a mounting plate. There is a boost gauge, voltage gauge and an oil? temperature gauge , they are black faced with red needles and i was told they originally came out of an STi , can anyone confirm if this is true, currently the boost gauge is fitted to my cossie but i have acquired another one and intended to sell on the set of three Lahmco's, if they are subaru equipment what was there original cost and what would be a reasonable price to put on them, cheers in advance for any replies

Only going on what I have heard on here that they were a factory fitted option to the mk 1 STI at great cost. I have got them in mine, mounted under the ice head unit. the temp one is for outside air temp. You should have a sensor top right inside of the front screen, check it out.

they are a factory fit option and are fitted in my wrx 95
the temp gauge doesnt seem any use as it only goes up to 50c and ive yet to see one working or even a sender for the gauge.
the boost gauge is available from subaru for about £120 new.
ive seen people buy the set for stoopid money but i recently bought some for a m8 for £50 delivered (cheers poc)

Lamco/Sti guage set usually consists of oil pressure, oil temp and boost and they cost silly money new, I think it about £800 including centre pod:rolleyes:

As i posted previously the gauges include one Temp gauge, one voltage gauge, and one boost gauge , the three are mounted in a two piece black steel mounting plate and come complete with all wiring and bullet connections, Sounds from your replies that this set is the genuine article after all, i wasn't sure and didn't want to advertise them till i knew for sure what car they had originally come out off. Thanx very much for your replies
Footnote: Care3 i just took a look at the link in your post, that set in the picture is the exact same as the ones i have here
