ok so here's the deal, i have a Auto Tranny cooler mounted in the front, and i wanted a Oil temp gauge, maybe even two if possible, one for a temp reading before it goes to the cooler, and one after the cooler before it goes to the Tranny... or if thats not possible, then maybe just one (before it goes into the cooler).


How do i go about getting the right one and how do i set it up?

yes, you can do the temp gauge before and after the cooler.....

to install a gauge, the hardest part is just running the signal wire into your car. to install the sensor itself, you'll need some fittings to fit into your rubber lines (it's the same thing for the in/out lines, depending on what you want to read- you can do both to get a pre-cool temp and a post-cool temp) and then the sensor that is supplied with the gauge will fit into the fittings. you will then just need to run a signal line inside your car and a ground line to a ground on your car by the sender unit.


here are some pics to get a visual on it

you can see the fittings and sender unit attached to the hose hanging behind the cooler


And here's a close up
