Additional Gauges

Hi guys,

Has anybody put additonal gauges on a 99 f-150 w/ 5.4? I was just wondering what gauges and how difficult it was. I'm thinking about an oil gauge and maybe a air/fuel ratio and a possible eng. temp. gauge.


Thanks

I have a water and oil temp on the A pillar, as long as they are electric they are easy to wire up, mechanicals would be a bit harder.
