While buying new is certainly one way of doing this, I chose to buy a set of three VDO gauges in their own little bezel housing out of an old 4000 series Audi(like 84-90) on ebay for like $20. Got volt meter, OP and OT, but the op reads in BAR and the OT in C, but I can convert easily enough. YOu can find the op senders and ot senders as well. Not sure how many hits you'll get by typing in VDO in an ebay search, but there will be a bunch. Part of it depends on how big a hurry you are in.
