I want to install a clean looking outside temperature gauge. I want it to be 12v powered. i would like it to be illuminated when i turn my lights on which will not be hard to wire. i do not want those type r ones sold at pepboys or a little one thats battery or cigarette outlet powered. anyone have any awesome ideas?

I was looking at some temperature displays for CPU's but i dont know if the probe will be good enough for the elements........

I have been wanting do do that for quite some time as well. I have found them on eBay just like the one he is using on 4runner.org I just havn't been real excited ordering it from overseas and not knowing what kind of quality it would be. Looks like I just need to do it....

 

Thats my truck on T4R.org and so far the gauge has been flawless. Spot on temps.

 

dgoll74 that is an awesome mod!!

 

Oooo sweet thanks for the link Dr Coffee.

 

I know you didn't want battery powered, but this little one has been working for over a year.
