i picked the Z series gauges, because i thought they matched the stock guages close enough and the price was good.

I'd like to know as well how to get the readings to the gauges. Take it easy on me I'm new to this stuff and you all seem to know this stuff like experts.

I have water and trans temp. If I had a third pod I would have gone w/ volts. I really just wanted a single pod w/ a gauge teading TEMP, and use a switch to move between water and trans, but I couldn't find a single pod full pillar
