Go to Under the hood: https://www.s2ki.com/...under-the-hood/

and search for "Oil Gauge install" - there's quite a few threads there for various different makes.

Or if you'd typed "Oil gauge" into the search here, you'd have found this thread: https://www.s2ki.com/...3585-oil-gauges

Having spent the morning looking at something similar, the ONLY place that looks neat is the one that people have custom fitted into the Audio control area. Everything else looks stuck on / trash by comparison.

Or the dash audio control replacement



Plenty here. The one i like replaced the courtesy lights but the tidiest least obtrusive one is the one that replaces the audio function control button.




Simon, if i could find 'nice' digital red gauges that didn't cost £150 + then i'd consider it, DEFI are lovely but my GOD are they expensive.

http://www.intellitr...oil-gauges.html are the best i've found but they only do pressure and not oil pressure. I'd want Oil temp, pressure and probably a volt indicator.
