just wondering...

i was just wondering how hard it would be to do a a-pillar gauge setup. I was thinking about doing an AFPR and thought it would be nice to have the pressure easily visible, then i got to thinking it would be nice too, to have a transmission temp gauge. but i'm not sure how hard it would be to wire that or how to go about it.

I have three gauges on my 83 pillar and I like it very much. Just take your time and follow the instructions an you should be OK.

Re: just wondering...

I believe the transmission temperature gauge is a little involved. You will need to drop the transmission pan and drill a hole for the sending unit. It works on the same principle as the cooling system temperature gauge.
