Default More gauges or new dash/cluster

So I currently have two gauges on the steering column(boost and afr). I plan on adding a couple more for water and oil temp as well as oil pressure. I was thinking of using a couple PLX multi gauges, but realized it may be more efficient and cost effective to just run a full race dash. I'm not sure of the cost to run the additional sensors for the features I'm looking for, but I assume I would need multiple sensors on top of the price of the cluster.

1. Cost wise, what would be more?

2. Does anyone else here have a dash they're using? And how user friendly is it?

It's got a custom made bracket to fit into the S2000 dash,4 function buttons for switching modes/screens.You can get a dedicated patch lead to the Ecu plus independent feeds from various sources fo things like fuel pressure/ temp ect.....and all normal repeater lights like turn signals,high beam ect.

I just want to weigh out the pros and cons first. Why are you selling it?

I'm running 2 PLX Multi Gauges. 1 for boost, the other for A/F (also has oil temp and oil pressure sensors hooked in). I'm running Kpro 4, so I monitor other things from my smartphone (AIT's, water temp, ethanol %, etc)

I don't really like the looks of A-pillar gauges, so here was my solution

How do you control your heat vents?

Since I added a CR center console, I ended up with an extra rear defrost button. I moved/modified the hazard button to the center (CR hardtop defrost), then moved/modified the vent control to sit where the hazard button used to be

I use the Enough Logic bluetooth adapter that sends information to an iOS device. Only works with AEM though.
