Mount the gauge in an "A" pilar mount or in the console. There is an 1/8" NPT port above the shift cable connector on the drivers' side of the transmission housing. Install the temperature sender there & run the wire to the gauge through the console. Hook 12v. power & ground to the gauge light from the dimmer switch or you can tie into any dimmed power wire. I chose the wire that sends power to the shift position indicator light in the shift column. Good-luck.

I got mine from Autometer. Ultralite Series. Yes, it came in this guage kit. Basically, you need wire, misc' electrical connectors, soldering iron, tape, and patience. Take your time, read some posts on installs, and have at it. I don' t like doing electrical stuff, but, this wasn' t that bad
