If it's not a known brand, then stay away from it. I would try to source some gauges from Jegs or any reputable place like that.

I would only buy Autometer.
I've read pretty bad reviews on the Summit brand gauges, and the Faze Gauges I have are going in the trash when i install my new Autometers in the Delta.
I would give them to you, however, the oil gauge is off by about 15 psi. The Water and volts gauge are right and the trans gauge isn't hooked up, but it's only been hooked up to lighting, never a sender

This gauge is electrical. Yeah it's off but about 15 psi.
Cold at idel, the Faze says 35, the Autometer says 50. My mech's gauge also reads 50
I had a mech in the Alero (and it leaked all inside my fuse box) and I'm putting it in the Delta. I bought the stainless steel briaded line instead of the copper tubing. Better work for $75
