temp sending unit for a m5od?

is there a temperature sending unit for an m5od transmission?

i have autometer gauges from my old truck, and one of them is a trans temp gauge. i sold that truck with the sending unit in it.

now i want to put the gauges in my new truck and i can't find a sending unit for an m50d...not to mention a place to install it.

does one exist?

I doubt it, it would be next to useless. Manual transmissions seldom get hot enough to pay any attention to.
 
so...what to do with the gauge now???
not to mention the 3rd hole in my 3-hole pillar pod.
i've got oil pressure and water temp. i guess volts.

anyway, someone speak up if you find a sending unit

answer - just sell the other stuff i have, and buy a cheapo 3-pack gauge kit from o'reilly.

just got back from there and got an Equus set that goes under the dash for $35. oil, water, volts. it's a manual oil pressure gauge too, so that should make everyone happy. i hope to install it tonight to find out if i really have a problem

anyway, my old gauges are still for sale - they just need sending units
