ML350 - Adding an oil pressure gauge
Has anyone added an oil pressure or temperature gauge on their ML350? Looking for ideas for mounting areas that do not look tacked on.

Why? Have you ever heard of a single issue with the OM642 because of oil pressure or temperature?
And, unless you hide it out of sight which would defeat the purpose of a gauge, pretty much anything aftermarket will look tacked on - and IMHO quite tacky - in the ML.

I'd be asking someone who knows how to play with the ECU if the IC can be talked into displaying the oil pressure. The info is in the computer, you just need to read it. Benz Ninja? Vlad?

I am sure you could just use a scangauge. https://www.scangauge.com/products/p...scangauge-iii/
But I was thinking about an old-school mechanical or electrical gauge.
