Has anyone installed after market gauges IE water temp oil pressure?
i need to locate where the factory sensors are located and find out if i can install a tee.

 

Try searching. You'll find your answers.

Long story short, you need a water temp sensor or the Blitz Cooling Performer for water temp. For oil temp/pressure, you use the senders that the gauge includes and an adapter that goes on the oil filter mount.

Use electrical gauges, mechanical gauges cause cancer. If you want to go for the win, you should use HK$, Blitz, Greddy, Defi, Omori, or ApexI gauges.

 

Here's how I did my water temp gauge:



AC AutoTechnic S7 Temp Gauge & Adapter top dash mounted in VDO black cup.

What i don't understand is why ac autotechnic
gauges have those 2 screws on the face.
it ruins the clean look... i almost made the
mistake of buying their gauges until i noticed
the stupid screws.
there are so many other gauges without stupid
screws showing on the face
what use is cool night time lighting when the
screws ruin everything

 

I never noticed the screws before you brought them to my attention. I love the gauge and the way it changes color in the night. IMHO, it looks great in the high quality VDO dash-top-mount black cup.

You get what you pay for...

 

movin' to ICE.........

 

Do you remeber what size dia. the adapter is?

 

Suggestions on where to mount the guages?
