I'd stick with one of the major brands whenever you deal with oil supply. I had an oil sandwich adapter from Stan at fast-turbo.com. It was a nice quality piece that had my oil pressure gauge as well as my turbo feed line.

Not really... I have an oil pressure gauge, so needed to install one of these...

Why useless? On these cars you never know when your motor is going to end up blowing because the lack of not knowing when your car is hot, low oil preassure stuff like that, i say gauges are very important even on stock cars
dont know if you get my point?

I'm getting your'e point ! what i'm saying is.. for a daily driver like 90% of us it's more ... ( Can't find the word i'm french )

++++Cé plus pour l'apparence d'avoir une tite bébelle !!+++

Anyways it's a cheap price for getting youre gauge works ( If you already have one ) so why not ??

Probably better than nothing !!

That's actually a neat device. You can transfer it to another car (if the tread patterns match) if needed, and no holes to drill. It will probably be something I will purchase later on when I start adding gauges. I've purchased from glowshift before and they have good products that work better than stock. Had some on my LeBaron until it burnt them up.

I was just looking at their Tach for our custom, in the glove box, stealth cluster. The color changability it totally funny, but SMART! I hate how we have blue lights on the dash and green stereo... DUH!!

I also saw this yesterday on eBay. I want to pick one up in the near future. I just have to decide on some mini gauges. Probably do water and voltage at the same time.
