So Ron, I have an 81 Air Cooled 2.0l and want to monitor the oil temperature because I will be towing a small trailer. What can you recommend for me as far as the sending unit that will work with a VDO gauge? ( I have no inclination to drill any holes in my motor ) Does Bus Depot offer a solution?

Thanks a lot for your time.

Regards from Utah,

John
