The FP-5l I had installed is easy to use and so accurate it’s almost scary. When I find a company that produces a product that good I stick with them. The fact that these instruments also look so darn good didn’t hurt either.

Customer Testimonials
The installation was straightforward and quite easy. Reliability and accuracy far exceed the original [aircraft’s] oil pressure/temperature systems. Also, the price was about a third of the cost to replace the gauge cluster.
