Does anybody know how to do one for the water temp?

for the water temp you have to get an adapter that goes in between the radiator hose. cut it in half and reattact it with a temp sensor out .... Johnboy had something posted up saying which one he used. forgot which thread its in though.
but look on this website:

shows which adapters i'm describing. i bought a guage for the oil pressure from these guys and it works perfectly...
