Oil pressure

[Geofft21]

Hi Guys,
Great job with the gauges, however Ford deleted the centre gauges from the RHD models four months after I ordered the car, but never reprogramed the option to "My Gauge" so we don't have access to pressure or temperature.
Anyone know if there's a way of recovering them, or if there is a RHD dash piece with the two dials out there anywhere?

Just buy the center gauge cluster from a GT350. Less than $250, pops right in, plug and play on the connectors, has oil pressure and oil temperature. Only thing it doesn't have is that MyColor isn't supported. It stays white-on-black all the time.

The temperature is calculated from operating conditions, not via a sensor. Still, that's the same way it would do it on the dash if it was available. And, damn it, it IS available as an optional display on the analog gauge dash in the EcoBoost and base GT.

Finally made the time to install the OP/OT gage; Tom was right, it really was a 15 minute job once i found my T20 driver. I can't add anything to Tom's excellent write up and pictorial, but my concerns about squeaks and rattles after pulling the trim off were unwarranted. I *really* like having an oil temperature reading; it's one of the most important engine parameters and lets you know when the car is ready to be romped on.

Helped a friend in Washington install the OP/OT gage this weekend, but managed to "misplace" one each of the yellow and white clips. White are super slippery, likely polyethylene; and the yellow seem to be POP - plain old plastic. The white are only used on the trim to the right of the glove box; the yellow are used on the main trim panel. Blue clips also used, but we didn't lose any of those.

White clip p/n w717661s300 $3.50 each
Yellow clip p/n w714972s300 $2.50 each

After we ordered/bought new clips, plus a spare of each, we found the "misplaced" clips resting on top of the cabin air filter

Yep, was a 15 minute job at best. I like it having the temp info too. Hasn't went past 200 thus far, but I also haven't driven the car much since the install. What temps are you seeing? Ambient has been in the 90's here lately.

Glad the post helped!!
