Water temp Gauges for Jazz?? Jul 27, 2005 11:44:05 GMT 10

Hi guys

So you know Jazz doesn't have a "proper" engine temperture indicator, only Cold or Hot warning light. Even though "maybe" technically as long as the cold warning light goes off, it's ok to drive watever u like, it's just weird to me. When i had my previous car, i always wait until the temp indicator points at middle then i push my car. Therefore, I am thinking to get a engine temp gauge. However, i was told that there is no such a gauge for engine temp. but instead, i could get a water temp gauge meter. it will do the same thing. My questions are...

1. can i really use water temp gauge to show my engine temp?

2. How about Oil temp gauge? wat does that show?

3. i saw this on eBay, could any one tell me if it's any good?
cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI...ssPageName=WDVW

I am thinking to put my three gauges (Oil temp, water temp, and oil pressure) on the centre of the console (as those spoon one does). But firstly, i don't have that "container/holder" to put/hold all three gauges there. Secondly, i don't know if it is a complicated job/expensive to do so...

Please i would like to know the info about where i could get that centre console container/holder to hold my gauges and how much it would be. Also, does that require a lot of modification of the car's console? if yes, i might think again...

Thanks for all the reply~!

Cheers

Ian

Oh~!!!

Well~if i put that one, i will be shamed for myself and i wouldn't be surprised if the gauges are not willing to perform correctly~heheh

Anyone know where i could get something like that picture shows? Or at least similar?? How much?? i think Spoon jazz also has something very similar...

Defi is hot but so are the prices.

i personally like those displays/meters that plugs into ODBII connector, as they're relatively easy to install and feature packed.

my friend has a Blitz one and it will give you warning flashes if the predetermined min & max value was exceeded. it can even works as a shift light.

This is how it looks like. Type-I works for Jazz.
