cowling gauges?
is that even the name for them, its usually a series or 2 or more guages mounted outside the car on the cowling by the wipers? and where do you find them? how weather proof are they and do they get in the way of wipers?

They're nothing special, just a regular gauge in a cup suitable for outside mounting.

Re: cowling gauges?
well the guages you buy seperately, so the part that mounts to the cowling area and holds the gauges that you supply, or do you buy them seperatly?

so they have mounting plates, you somehow attach to the cowling by screws or something, and then the cups mount to that, then the gauges inside the cups, so theres bassically three peices

Re: cowling gauges?
so its basically a pick which cup you think will work best kinda thing? and when you get certain gauges like oil pressure are the weather proof or can you just not drive with them in rain and what not?
