Water Temp, Oil Press., or Oil Temp Gauge, Which One ?

[DMENTR]

I am going to unplug the factory aux. fuel and temp. gauges. I am trying to decide which gauges to put in their place. I am going to put in a digital voltmeter on the left side.
What to put on the right side? Has anybody put in oil pressure? if so, what sending unit and where to install? Thanks in advance for an insight.

I went with Auto Meter gauges and bought them from Summit Racing as their gauges are weatherproof and seemed to match the factory gauges well. Total cost for the Voltmeter and Oil Pressure were about $110 delivered.

Yours look really nice. My husband needed a guage for his Harley and he needed it with a white face and chrome ring. The only one they had was part of a 3 gauge set so I said I could use the voltmeter and oil pressure gauge on my Spyder. Now I think it will look pretty ugly with the white face.

Where are people installing the oil pressure sender?

Buy a tee from this company and then remove the factory sending unit located in the lower right side of the Spyder. Screw this tee into the 10 mm hole and screw the factory sending unit back into the straight through outlet. In the other outlet screw the 1/8" npt sending unit that comes with your gauge. That way you maintain the 'idiot' light on the Spyder plus you get the actual pressure read out. Be careful with the torque pressure on the tee as it has a narrow wall. Lube it well and use a crush washer.
