It seems i have a VDO Oil Temp gauge without the sender. I just saw a taco plate and sender on ebay go for over $150.
Are there any other options? that will incorporate the gauge? So I am stuck with this gauge...Should I try to trade the gauge for cyl head temp gauge and sender? Cheaper? Did all cars have the cyl temp sender? I haven't checked my car. What gauges did the post 73 cars have in the console? Clock, oil temp and voltmeter? |

you could get the vdo dipstick sending unit! It is pretty cheap. However when adding a console the way to go is the factory sending plate and sending unit. They are easily installed, keeps your car original and with a wire extension plug right into the factory harness (green with black wire) in front of the battery.
