Best place to fit oil/water senders? impressions pros/cons

The D and the lettering on that Depo gauge look way too familiar lol. Where did you get that? The De looks like Defi but with po at the end.

Hook your illumination wire up to something that will come on with the headlights. On the FD you can hook it up to the wires for the lights going to either the cigarette lighter or the ash tray for example.

The coolant temp looks like it might be right depending on your setup, maybe a little bit high, but the oil temps look way low. Mine are closer to 200 at least IIRC, and during driving I've seen them get up to around 230 or 240 on warmer days.

^ +1, that way you should be able to adjust brightness with the rest of the dash lights as well. Just (carefully) pull the shifter surround panel and the wire is right there.
