Are there any good used Lotus parts vendors out there?

Most of the good price used vendors are individuals.
What parts do you need?

Do you want electric or mechanical? I have an original electrical gauge from a 91 SE if your intrested. But I don't know if any change was made in the gauge between 91 and 94.

It's electronic. Is there anyway to determine the compatablity of them?

Mine has a hole for a light and 3 prongs. 1 12volt 1 ground and 1 for the signal from the transducer.

I'll have to check the face to determine the pressure range.

The diameter is about 2" as well.

Thanks in advance.

It seems to me the easiest thing to do would be to call your nearest dealership and find out for sure via part numbers. At the same time I'll see if the gauge I have has a part number on it. What I have is the factory VDO electric gauge in green backlight from a 91 SE Jim Clark 25th special edition.

If you give me your e-mail address I'll send you a couple small picture files of the front and back of my gauge, then you can tell me how close it is to yours. I have a feeling that they should be very similiar, but you never know.

Incidently how much would you want for the gauge?

That is exactly what I have. As for calibration, the last time I had freescan connected with this boost gauge in the car, freescan gave the same reading as the gauge. If your sending unit is in proper working order, then the gauge I have should work just fine in your car. Let me know what address you wnat it sent to and I'll put it in the mail.
