These gauges are made in Argentina. The company name is SIAP. They are of very good quality and durability.

Hello friend, I did this only for my truck. It is a real pride that you like it. Here in Argentina not easily get replacement parts, then we must learn many things to achieve good results. Thank you very much to all of you!
