Has anybody installed an aftermarket transmission temperature gauge on an xe? so, where did you purchase it? Is it hard to install?

Thanks.

Here's an portable option, haven't try it myself yet, but it should work. Low cost Digital Thermometer with a thermocouple wire probe, only $29.90, -58 f to +1382 f ! http://www.sweetmarias.com/prod.roastkits.shtml Attach probe end to trans pan with aluminum adhesive tape or ??. Could be used on rearend with longer lead/probe.

This is what you want. Do it right the first time

Both the gauge/gauges and POD can be found here

You may want to do a google search to see where you can get the best price. The gauges are made by AUTOMETER, and the gauge pods can either be a universal or one made specifically for the Titan (don't know if they make those...you would have to search)

Personally, I'd like to just get the SE/LE gauge cluster and plug that in. I assume with the CAN bus that the signal is already there, the XE does have an A/T TEMP idiot light.

That is an interesting idea. Anyone ever look into switching the XE for an LE/SE guage cluster? What features does the other cluster have that the XE doesnt? I know there are a few...
