All three are analogue so less distracting, except the last one; that causes major concern in the wallet.

Please add me to the list. Seems like something that could be very useful.

PLEASE, someone enlighten me 'cause I must be missing something.
Why is a £50-£60 gauge better than the £7 one I have described. It should be very easy to fit and blends in fairly well with the dash instruments.
Sure, I don't have a 1.8, it's more out of interest that I will fit it in my diesel, together with a push-in Gates thermostat in the top hose.

And NO, I don't need a second probe, I drive a cool running diesel, so don't need to monitor temp. up another orifice ! !

Just arrived, ordered 18/6. Made an offer of £12 for two, accepted. Not exactly minature, but OK for the money.
Bezel is grey not blue, thats my crappy phone camera.

I originally posted this thread to see which members are interested in a replacement for the currently unavailable Hans Gauge and this is what the list is for on the first post. Other members have posted information about some eBay displays and now I'm totally confused about who is interested in what.

The Hans replacement is coming along well and I hope to have a sample to test in the not too distant future, when I am satisfied it performs the same functions as the Hans gauge I will put up a new post giving full details with a proposed cost and start an order list.

I will retain a list of those who I think are interested & direct them to the new thread when ready. I hope that is OK with everyone.

In the meantime I am going to request this thread is closed to avoid more confusion. If you want to post about any other displays please feel free to submit a new post.
