Aftermarket Gauges and Meters

Nice Looking Gauge, but never used them myself. :P Good Luck, let me know how it goes.

So in reading online, you can install the gauge inside and run the wires out of the fire wall and then you need to locate where the oil temp gauge is on the engine so that you can splice the wire into it and this way the OEM gauge would still work plus your new flashy gauge. The sensors in most cars are able to report all the info, just that it is cheaper to have dummy lights to say too hot or a generic gauge that shows cold to hot.

Great! This is exactly what I've been looking for. Thanks!
