I installed an AutoMeter triple gauge pillar in my car and currently have 2 out of 3 of the holders occupied. The top is a trans temp gauge, the second is a coolant temp gauge, and I'm still contemplating on the third.
What do you guys think the third one should read? I'm thinking either oil pressure or oil temp.
I know that there are more mounting solutions for more gauge later down the road but I'm concerned about the 3 most important gauges being inches from my head. What do you guys think the third gauge should be?
Who here can seriously say that they trust their stock oil pressure gauge....anybody?
I can't. It's good for a quick reading but nothing too detailed. Not to mention the hugest obstacle. The steering wheel completely blocks it while driving.

I can . I worked at a shop and on the way to work one morning my oilpressure went to zero and I was close to work so I pulled in , clocked in then checked my pressure with a tester and my car with over 100k on it was still in spec on pressure so I replaced the sender and my pressure was within 5psi of the tester . I would say that is very close wouldn't you ?
