Default Any add on oil temp or pressure gauges?

I live in So CAL and it gets pretty hot sometimes. I'm considering a oil temp gauge on my Night Train and was wondering if anyone could post some pics of their custom install?

Different setup for a Softail.

I have the same set up as Peter just digital.





I don't have a picture of the digital temperature dipstick display. Many members will claim it is not accurate. I tested mine in boiling water and it was only 2° F. off.

Don't mean to hijack but are those HD branded gauges or another brand? I see the reviews on HD site for their oil pressure gauge(digital or analog) are low and that's why I ask. My dad has a Rocker C and on hot days will turn the bike off at every light. It drives me up a wall.

Have a look at : Jerzee Customs for oil gauge kits

Here's mine installed on a Softail Deluxe.
