Thanks, man. Gauge installs are pretty straightforward, and if I move forward with this, I'll be having a pod custom made.

I've done a lot of research in carputers and their software.

Just an idea.

disregard, just re-read the original post.
No worries. I'm a member of mp3car forums and have done a number of searches there for various things.

What I think I really need to know is if the car ALREADY monitors water temp and oil pressure. If it does, and I can find out where to ascertain the info short of the OBD port, this will be easier and cheaper to do.

Ideas?
