Anyway, one or two of you said Oil Temp would be the most useful, so fitted this extra gauge too:
Thought I would fit it just under the rev counter - still attached to a set of M3 clocks!!
Pacerpete changed over the rev counter so it remains accurate, I changed over the fuel gauge (but kept the face) and soldered the "dry" joint that makes the flippin' brake pad light so annoying - cleared that up nicely. The M3 sump plug/sensor was swapped when I did the oil/filter recently and wired the gauge into a switched live and away we go.
It's surprising just how long the oil actually takes to get up to full operating temp - 10 miles or so.
I've now got a leather covered double gauge pod I bought from Parker Performance that I will list for sale as soon as I can get some pics (or, when I can find it in the garage...)
