Hey guy's,

Thanks

Tunerview is cleaner and easier....
Neither Tunerview, Hondata, or AIM Solo DL offer Oil temperature/Oil Pressure readings. I too am wondering where anyone else has mounted their gauges?

Honda Civic 10th gen custom gauges mounted? prototype_mockup_TPMS_OIl


Oil Temperature & Oil Pressure ( + Real Time Active TPMS) on a 2018 Si.

Note: Required mounting aftermarket Oil Temperature & Pressure sensors.
Switch is to select 2 alternative parameters to be displayed on the Dual Gauge -- (for future expansion)


Still plenty of room to slide in the Smartphone for Android Auto.

I have seen your post previously, were you able to finally have the gauge installed and mounted? How did you mount/make that bracket?

Not yet -- still in Prototype "Mock up" stage.
Other non-related Civic projects have taken priority -- such is life - TPMS is mounted and operational, but not the Dual Oil Gauge.
The Bracket will be made out of Black Plexiglass (to match the color of the compartment) and will be firmly secured in place with side brackets, that should only need the minimal of mounting hardware.

Not a fan of sticking additional instrument up in a cluster above the dash when there is no real need.

Pick up the thin innovative combo gauge like someone else in this thread did. Probably can mount the sensors to an adapter plate near the oil filter, or at least that is the option I remember from when I looked at it years ago for another car.

I am not tracking my car so I never could justify putting in the oil pressure and temp sensors. Even if I was, I would consider adding an oil cooler instead or in addition to the sensors. If you are concerned about the oil temp, probably a good idea to monitor and improve the cooling capacity. No?

I agree, I am waiting to receive my USR Side mount oil cooler kit which will come with provisions for a pressure and temperature sensor. I would never put the gauges on top of the dash on this car, just trying to see what other pod options are available or if anyone has tried anything else besides a typical round gauge.

https://www.justraceparts.com.au/ Sells a multi all-in-one gauge display which is similar to the Defi unit. Just not exactly sure where to mount it for easy visibility but without the clutter.

anyone has any idea about the size of upper radiator inner diameter ??
Going to install a water temp adapter but searched everywhere and couldn't find the data.

It's hard to drain some coolant and open the upper water hose and measure.

I see the red blinker for the water temp gauge. did you manage to get it working ? using only the OBDII port?
