Oil temp gauge on a PP

Never mind replaced the 8 with a b and it shows up

Contact Levittown Ford on this forum. I believe they have come up with a kit. Or someone has.

I'm gonna go ahead and wake this thing back up.

Any update on this?

No update, as the thread states its plug and play, search the part number already provided and buy away.

Just remember, for the Premium owners: The GT350 doesn't have MyColor.

Which hurts plausible deniability. SOs more likely to notices loss of color but not a vacuum gauge changing to oil temp. ;)

Anyone who has done the swap want to sell their oil temp/vac gauges cheap? ;)

Is the oil temp reading for this gauge an actual sensor, or inferred like the original oil temp gauge which just reads green, yellow and red?

It's a calculated value not reading a sensor. I don't think it adds much more value than the green yellow red gauge other than it gives a idea of what temperatures they thought were safe.

There's a great article on a grassroots motorsports project camaro where the gm engineers actually had to adjust the calibration of the oil temp readout because their algorithm was too conservative.

I still want the gauge though...

Just installed mine that I received from HoosierDaddy. Super simple. Removed the lower right panel(just right of the glove box) then removed the whole trim panel with gauges, unplugged gauges, used T-20 Torx to remove, installed with T-20 torx screws, plugged back in, picked up little blue clips that fell off the trim panel, re-installed both trim pieces and key on engine off. Will be at the track next Saturday to test out visibility while driving on track.

Curious how it relates to the existing gauge in the center screen. Please take some comparison pics of both if you can :headbang:

4 Pictures(1: Cold start up leaving work center cluster gauge. 2:Cold start up leaving work Gauge Pod. 3: 16ish minute drive from work to home, half freeway/surface streets center clsuter gauge. 4:"""""""""" Gauge Pod.) It was about 103 degrees and the car had been sitting for about 6 hours.
