Jeepney gauges.

The Jeepney brother drives is fairly typical, the left two gauges function but not the other three, though a speedo isn't needed for these anyway, being fairly irrelevant in the Philippines. The oil pressure gauge does work but only shows a reading when cold, the engine is quite tired.
They get inspected but the people doing it must be very good at lifting heavy things as well as having very thick and fogged up spectacles. They are a bit of a marvel of simplicity though I'd like to see more pride in their Jeepneys, little things like lights not working drag the image down, and it'd be nice to see more getting some fresh pretty paint.
