I picked this up at the TT-East recon from BierBurner and finally got it installed. I picked up the senders from 42DD. Installation took about 4 hours. I installed the temp sensor without changing oil. Just remember to do this when the engine is COLD!

It's not a real hard install and on the scale of 4 tires and a spare, I'll give it a 3.

The good news is after 108K on the odometer, Oil pressure at speed is 60psi and above and oil temperture is between 200 - 240 degrees.<ul><li><a href="http://public.fotki.com/RoberTT/tt_mods/mantis-and-vdo-gauges/">Install...</a></li></ul>
