Default I need help with my next project

Hi All, I need help with a project I am working on. I use the Gold Point attenuator for my 6SN7/26/300B amp but don't like the looks of it.....not artsy enough. So I bought the Lionel transformer and am gutting it and repacking it with the Gold Point guts. So the left lever with select the inputs and the right lever with turn the volume up or down. Here is the problem: I would like to put power gauges in the front of the transformer to add to the Frankenstin look but don't know what gauges (ammeter, voltmeter or what) to use or how to wire them.....any help? Cheers.

Meters (and some other nice goodies) can be found here:

If you are going to add meters then have them do some thing useful - such as display the 300B idle current.
Cheers,
Ian
