[How To] Temperature gauge added on dash

I added an aftermarket temperature gauge to my NT today (with the help of the infamous Chuck, AKA Chuckdkltdt). See attached photos. I cut the hole in the dash panel with a Dremel tool and round saw blade. Power came from a Honda aftermarket power plug for Honda heated grips. It could also be brought from the battery or aftermarket fuse box. The photos show lit, unlit and a close-up.

At first I thought you were referring to an Engine Temperature Gauge. Couldn't imagine why you wanted a redundant setup. But after looking at the photo's, it appears to be an ambient thermometer.
