Good and stable transmission temperature

Installed 2 weeks ago and works great! The pointer is stable. Looks well done. Connect the lighting cable to the dimming cable. Works well.

Pros
  • Lighting and electricity
Cons
  • Volume

It's close and looks good. Also

The description says they fit my 2004 Dodge Ram but it's not a factory match. It's close and looks good. Also, the plastic bracket needs to be removed if you want to install it in a front pillar carrier.

Pros
  • Gauges
Cons
  • High price

Great Transaxle Sensor

Fits nicely on my '05 Dodge 2500. MUST require a good floor. I ran into some issues resetting my sensors. After the lights dimmed, ALL my sensors would reset and the lights on the dash would go out. Remade my bases and all is good. You need to make sure you either buy a cooling line that's rated to accept it, or get a coupler and fill it with thermal paste, or put a "T" somewhere on the line. In general, the sensor works fine, no problems!

Pros
  • Electrical
Cons
  • Drill Kit

Works well, looks good, be careful where you install it.

I installed this meter on the bus with a mounting cup. It looks good. I originally installed it under the defroster duct and found that when it got hot it stopped responding. It looks like the gauge got hot from being installed on the duct. The heat is conducted through the bracket to the meter. I noticed this because when I tried to start the bus after a while, the counter didn't reset. I changed the meter and the problem was gone.

Pros
  • spare parts
Cons
  • there are nuances
