[Mgs] water temp/oil pressure gage

[PaulHunt73]

Depends on whether he is planning to use it 'normally' before getting 
the gauges done or not.  If so then he definitely needs both gauges from 
the outset, but these could be separates if cheaper until he gets a dual 
gauge and has that rebuilt.  You can test 'untested' yourself but if 
either section doesn't work you would have to get it rebuilt before 
using the car instead of 'at some point'.  The temp section is the most 
likely to be faulty, especially if removal from the donor car was not 
done with care.
