Transmission temperature gauge mount

Here’s a cool idea I stole off of a 4 Runner thread.

The thread was an about the temperature sensor gauge I just happen to see the gauge in a pic.


View from directly above


View from sitting back in seat .

As you can see the 4 Wheel Dr. shifter somewhat blocks the view

But you can lean forward a little and see it just fine .

I highly recommend a Auto meter angle ring



I pointed mine up and to the left



You may have to move some of the shifter harnesses under the plastic

Also, you will need to cut one side of the bracket that comes with the auto meter or bend the auto meter bracket to get it to work at an angle .

From here


To here



I fasten them down with zip ties

Sorry I don’t have pictures

Rest of the steps are pretty easy



Like my pappy always said ... Measure twice



Cut once...dummy



Don’t forget to double check the millimeters of your gauge versus the millimeters of your holesaw. Holesaw should be Slightly smaller



Here it is flat mounted... I added the gauge ring later



In the truck , Clears just fine flat mounted.. after moving those harnesses





Do this at your own risk

I am not responsible if you do this haphazardly.
