Default Longacre guages

Has anybody put these guages in their car?

http://www.longacreracing.com/catalo...d=670&catid=11

They are all electronic, and use stepper motors for dial movement. They also have programable warning lights. I know Nascar teams are using these in all the cars now. Do people like using the all electronic in the cars now?
Have you seen any benefit over the mechanical guages?

Todd: We used and still use Longacre gauges in circle track cars for many years. We had no problems and the price was right. I would not hesitate to use them in a street or drag car.
