I was just about to ask about the accuracy. Lagos, what'd you think, are the readings right?

i just got them in the mail .... my first impression ...WOW. these are really well made. a lot better build quality then autometer. the oil pressure sender for the premium series is about the same size as the oem sender! i cant wait to install them.

yeah those are the ones. i installed them today.
the good: they look very cool. peak hold is effn sweet! no more nylon vac tubing to deal with very accurate tiny oil pres sender! the bad: install did take a lot longer then your average autometer a little hard to see during the day, but not terrible a little too bright during the night had to shave the lotek pillar a little to get them to fit over all, i like these a lot. i just wish prosport would ditch this whole idea of trying have the defi smoke out look. if they just made a normal gauge, that was reverse light, then i think that would work alot better in the real world.

All in all, given your pros and cons, I still feel like these are a hot buy. What's another hour or two outta the weekend for the extra install? I nominate these gauges for a hot-buy

not the best pics in the world but you can still tell the huge difference...
with the stock gauge cluster bulbs:  with LEDs in the gauge cluster: color doesn't match 100% perfect but its pretty damn close and 100x better than the stock ones
