Hi, anyone got a 12 volt fuel gauge. I have heard 6 volt ones work but just not as accurate. Any thoughts?

Hi ya, they do come up on ebay and forums but you will pay a pretty premium for them . . . the other ways is to just put a voltage dropper on it thats what I am using on the panel . . . I think there is a guy on the ssvc forum thats converting your old 6v gauges to 12v now too.

** BTW got a membership form from you but haven't received any payment yet.

Cheers

If you're lucky you might get a baragin, I paid £80 for one before.

EarlyVW have the sunpro gauges too that fit in the slot . . . not authentic but an option.
