Good thing you asked, cause I just received both of my gauges a few days ago. I ordered them from StylinTrucks.com along with a full A-Pillar dual gauge pod. The guages that I have are the Aeroforce Interceptor scan gauge (a little expensive, but it has 25 different gauges in one, plus it scans and reads codes), and then I decided to just use a digital clock in the other opening because the clock on my radio is a little small. As soon as I have it all installed, I'll put some pics up. Here are the links.

Unless you get a wide band air/fuel I wouldn't bother. The narrow bands are just too iffy and will drive you nuts over time as they go side to side all the time. I have a tranny temp, tranny pressure, and an air gauge that I'm gonna mold into the 4x4 console of my first gen.
