Like to add transmission pressure and temperature gauges

[peterkvs]

I always like to pay attention to what is going on with my 99 400DA and I feel like I have no idea what is going on with the transmissions. I think I would like to have Transmission Temperature and Pressure gauges on the dash. I know some boats do, but mine does not. Has anyone added temp and pressure gauges to a ZF HSW 800 IV or ZF 80 VI transmission? If so what did you use. It would be super cool to find a gauge that did both. Any ideas out there?

Thanks,

Pete

If I was to do such a thing it would be NMEA 2000 transducers or 4-20 ma transducers with NMEA Conversion device and install a Garmin GMI 10 to view.

That's pretty cool. Can you set alarm conditions in case you don't happen to be on the right page? I'd be afraid I'd want to put nmea 2K sensors on everything!
