Dipstick Temp Gauge, Where to find one Options

[PanelBilly]

I recall reading about a dipstick that reads the temperature. I have a new gauge in the car and it would like to know what I'm actually running. If you have one I can borrow, that would be even better

a dipstick temp device was for the type1 (beetle) engines sold by GeneBerg for a long time till they stopped selling it. I think it was build for them by a company that took over the sales themselves after that and they also developed a type4 engine version. It is not a gauge. It replaces the dipstick with another dipstick with sensor that closes at a certain temp and it uses one of the lights in the dash (on beetles and busses the oilpressure light) to warn you.
I can use it on my Beetle, but also on my VW T2b Bus type4 2.0 liter, and use the oilpressure light in the dash for warning me. Downside: you cannot measure your oillevel anymore...you need to put your original dipstick in the glovebox in case you need it......
Another downside is that it warns at a certain temp and without the reached alert you have no clue about the temp, but what a gauge would tell you....
Just wanted to show it.....not promote it as the solution.
