Does anyone know where to obtain VDO gauges. I have a 1986 Martinique and am looking to replace a few of the gauges.

E-Bay had or has some clocks. Check under Correct Craft or Nautique.

http://www.egauges.com/ has good pricing and selection of VDO gauges. I've bought VDO gauges from them before for automotive use. I don't know if they have a line that matches your current gauges.

Here is a good link. I have bought from them before with no problem. Why don't you post the gauges you want to match,I might have some used ones.

I am replacing the fuel, voltmeter and water temp gauges. They all work fine but they are 27 years old and they look it.
egauges looks good. |

When I did my rebuild I replaced all my gauges with VDO from egauges. They won't have OEM if that's what you're looking for. They have plenty of choices for your application. Just keep in mind that you need to verify that the gauges you buy match the impedance of the senders in your boat or they'll be inaccurate. |

When people run down to the lake to see what's making that noise, you've succeeded.

ah, yes I have been trying to hunt down VDO industrial gauges for some time, they stopped making them for a few years now. I think if you disassemble the gauges you buff and wax the face, idk. I only have 810 hours on my CC, have the same gauges, I cover them whenever we aren't under way. Strange tho, my uncles 87 Martinique has 1200 hours and the gauges are getting faded, but our friends 86 Martinique has over 1700 hours and they look great! Original gauges too! Dont know how... Before you get rid of the old gauges, let me know, might want to take one or two from ya, and try the buff and wax deal...
