How did you instal the oil pressure gauge because I ve been trying to find source to hook the sender to? But to answer the OP Ive had mine for a while now and have had zero issues.

glowshift gauges are pretty badass... i had the tinted 7 color boost gauge and had no problems reading it whatsoever... all and all, a pretty solid gauge

it's pretty pimp... you can choose whatever color, or have it so it changes colors all the time, or fades the colors all the time

well i installed it on the block....i had to order the metric adapter to screw it onto the block and then installed the sending unit....but you need to upgrade to the 2.4 manifold for it to fit on the block or else you need to install it on the rear of the engine

after that its very basic...route the signal wire and give it a ground and boom...you got an oil pressure gauge

Can you order the metric adapter straight from glowshift?
