Default oil pressure warning system

03discoman gave me the idea for this one so i will put it to him. Is there available or a way to make a audible warning oil pressure gauge or for that matter a audible temp gauge? I mean my seat belt warning is disconnected as it's enough to drive you crazy... I think this could save alot of greif and not to mention $$$......this is right up your ally and i would buy one..... well..for my new engine

I would imagine that someone who could wire stuff could make one by tapping into the oil light.
The oil light comes on and the power to the bulb splits and powers a chime, or a fog horn...

Connect it to the seat warmers, if your oil pressure is too low or the engine too hot then your *** burns.

I Have Hooked up an Autometer Electronic Oil pressure gauge.. Works like a charm.. I have it mounted right on the top of the dash, in it's own little pod.. There is also a Matching Coolant gauge right next to it...

I had these laying around from an old race car, and just decided to toss them in when I was bored looking for something todo one day...

I would like to see your two gauges. I'm in the process of doing this myself.
