Do 65mm electrical wide sweep gauges even exist or am I losing my mind?

I've been scouring the internet for hours trying to find full sweep 65mm electical gauges (oil pressure, oil temp and AFR) and can't find a single one.

Am I losing my mind or does this combo of gauges not even exist?

If they do, I can't find any. Are they rarer than Unicorn balls or something?

There are plenty of 52mm (2 inch) electrical gauges but I'll be buggered if I can find any 65mm (2 5/8") ones. I could just but some short sweep ones but I really don't like the look of them.

Any links or wisdom would be great because I feel like I've taken crazy pills here!

Will do. 52mm is by far the most common size and I found plenty that would suit the look I'm after, but 65mm were proving hard to locate.

The only problem with those Glow Shift gauges is the water temp is in Fahrenheit. I could get a fuel pressure gauge I guess...

You could always get the boost guage instead and fit a couple turbo, would solve that issue

The good thing about gauges is you don't have to read them, just get used to the 'normal' position of the needle.
Convert F to C, and you will quickly adapt mentally.

Went with these because the chrome bezel matches the trim and the dial is black with a red needle...identical to the HSV cluster so it'll look as factory as possible.

You will get used to the F water temp. Needle should be vertical on the scale.
For oil pressure, some people like Bar, others PSI ...... all same same.
