I think that in '79 Trojan was using DetMar (Detroit Marine) gauges. When I needed some replacements a few years back I was unable to locate any DetMars anywhere, and ended up going with some Teleflex gauges - the Red International Series.

Those are not the same as mine.

I was going to the marina this weekend but had an emergency and didn't get to so not sure what type they are. I know mine do not have chrome trim.

I looked for DetMar online and found a website that carried many brands of old gauges including DetMar. The photo of the Faria gauges they had actually look like the gauges on my panel. Here is what they look like.

I guess theres been some gauge changes done in the life of a 30+ year old boat. I hadnt really paid attention to mine and noticed there's 3 different brands on my console. :shock:

k9th,

The one I have doesn't look like those. Do you still want the one I have with the black face and chrome trim?

Larry -

Thanks but no. I want to find an exact replacement if I can. My starboard side gauge functions but not accurately so I want to replace it.

Thanks for all your effort.
