Here's what you do if it's so cold your diesel fuel gels. Smear some on some toast and stay inside until it warms up outside.

What exactly do you need 8 gauges for? Lets see:

-Boost
-EGT
-RPM
-Voltmeter
-Engine Oil Temp
-Tranny Temp
-Differential Temp
-Air Flow
-Driveshaft RPMS
-Headlight intensity
-Fuel flow rate
-Fuel pressure
-Cabin Pressure
-Cabin Temperature
-Altitude
-Barometric Pressure
-Humidity
-Oxygen content of intake air
-Wheel bearing Temps for all 4 wheels (separate gauges)
-Exhaust tip temperature
-Turbo Temperature
-Hood Star Angle Measurement
-Coolant level (metered gauge)
-Oil Cooler Temperature

Hmmm....I guess there's potentially a lot of measurements one could take.

Thats 28 gauges + oil pressure, coolant temp, speedo, and fuel gauge

31 gauges! It'd look like the space shuttle inside!
