Default Gauges

Ok, found a few places that sell the pod that fits in the
center of the dash, but now I am looking for some gauges...
I found a place last night, but seem to have lost it.

Anyone have experience purchasing gauges, or putting them
on a new beetle that did not come with gauges + pod?
Is this possible, or am I looking at too much time/effort/cash?
I think the gauges (VDO) were like $20-$25 each... the pod
is out of control expensive, but then are there hookups under
there or did VW leave them off so you have to do a lot of
work?

Any input is appreciated.

Thanks.

Ok. How hard was it to install? e.g. did yours already have gauges? Were the wires/lines already run by VW? Thanks for the link... they have lots of gauges.
