Installed my led temp. gauge tonight

I bought the digital led temperature gauge that Mashaw_35 sells in the stuff by dootalkers section above. It installed super easy. I'd consider this setup a must have for anyone that has a liquid cooled REV. It's cheaper than the Doo gauge, and more precise. Besides giving peace of mind, it looks great when the sled is running. I turned off the lights in the garage tonight just to watch it. It's sure to get attention at the local stops.

Thanks for the feedback. We have had many positive responses about the kit from customers. BTW, we do have outside Air Temp. Gauge kits available for sale at the same price as the Water Temp Kits. We will post some pictures of them next week.

took the words right out of my mouth, no sled should be without 1.....
i want to thank les and matt for offering such a great product and doing bussiness in such a professional manner, thankx again, AL
quick question for those that have done the install.....after installing I still had some threads showing on the sensor....how tight did you guys install the sensor....finger tight and half a turn is the old standby but I do not want to have any leaking problems....

update:

Just fired up the sled and the gauge looks very cool and seems to be working fine with no leaks....can you overtighten these things?

As long as you have a good thread sealant in there, I wouldn't worry too much about leaks. I tightened mine a little more than that, going by feel and turning very slowly, being carefull not to strip or crack the thermostat housing from crowding it too hard.
If you are worried about leaks, before you thread it in put some teflon tape on the threads of the sensor. That will make a seal when you thread it in.
Can you give us some idea of what is involved in installing one of these?
About how long did it take?
Thanks
I just installed mine last week and it took all of 15 mins. Very nice kit and easy to install. I just unscrewed the alan key on top of the thermostat housing and screwed in the sensor with some thread sealant. Used a 2in holl saw to make the hole for the gauge. Pluged in the wire from the sensor to wire coming out of gauge then pluged the plug connection to a un used plug below your speado. Very good instructions also come with the kit!!
I just install my Digital LED Water Temperature Gauge this week, the red one and I'm so happy with it...very very easy to install...it worked out as soon as I started the engine...it's awsome.

I live in Quebec, Canada...and nobody as that...I can't wait to see their face when they're gonna see it!!!

thank you very much Marshaw_35

These will work for the SDI's right. Im just making sure because there are a lot of things that wont work on the SDI's.
INSTALLED TWO JUST RECENTLY!
PUT THE RED LED ON THE 500 SS & THE ICE BLUE ON THE 440! BOTH TURNED OUT SWEET! THE 06' 440 WAS DIFFICULT, THE GOOSENECK IS LOCATED UPSIDE DOWN BETWEEN THE JUGS, WHICH REQIURES YOU TO REMOVE THE CARBS TO INSTALL THE TRANSDUCER UNIT, AND HE DIDNT HAVE THE PROPER CONNECTIONS FOR THE 06' 440, SO I HAD TO CUT THE PLUGS AND SPLICE INTO A UNUSED HOT AND NEG WIRE.
VERY PLEASED WITH THE OUTCOME!
I was so glad to hear all the great feedback!

i just ordered one up....
