Gauges

Gentlemen, I'm back in Wyo now & I need to get main panel gauges in my Malinowski P404.There are 11 black holes there. The plane is in my aircraft folder & model, panel, sound, texture etc. in the P40folder. Gauges are in the main CFS2 directory gauge folder.When I winzipped this air craft into CFS2, only 5 gauges came off there. Are the files still compressed? Or are the rest of the gauges somewhere else? The plane flys great, shoots straight & bombs direct but missing some gauges.
 
The missing files are native CFS1 gauges. That's why you don't have them and KM/JM either deliberately or accidentally omitted them. Get this pack from Absquad:

CFS2 CFS1 Gauges (5.27MB). This file set contains all of the "stock" CFS1 gauges for use in CFS2. By: AB_Lt_Cmd_Riker. NOTE: The files will be installed in the following directory: "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Combat Flight Simulator 2\GAUGES\CFS1"

Note:
You should direct the auto-installer to a temp folder and pull the gauges from there to your main CFS2 gauges folder. But if not, after you run the installer to your defo CFS2 location, open the main CFS2 gauges folder and pull the gauges from the "CFS1" subfolder into the parent gauges folder itself.
 
Thanks Bearcat
I downloaded the files from CFS2 CFS1 into a temp folder. Do I have to copy & paste each individual file from that temp folder into my main CFS2 gauge folder or is there a simpler & quicker way to do it?
