I just installed the B&M gauge that goes with the Cooler Part #80212.
Finding all of the electrical leads was the hard part. Once that is done, finding a cool place for the gauge took awhile. I decided to install mine next to the drivers side speaker..It was easy access to this area as the side panel comes off real easy and its right in line with where my wires come thru the firewall to the cab.
Heres a couple pictures showing the installed inline sending unit and where I installed the gauge.

where you use the barb connectors and the hose clamps i'm worried it would leak. do you think i could put a piece of heat shrink over the barb connector shrink it down and then install my hose clamps on top? do you think that would work?

I don't see why not but there is little need to worry about any leaks. The couplers fit really tight and when clamped you should have no issues. Mine's been on for 2 1/2 and no leaks.

I reccomend getting the aeroforce interceptor instead. Its just plug and play in your obd2 port and you dont have to cut anything or wire anything. plus its a 50-in-1 guage and you can even turn off your esp with it. got mine coming in a week or so i can post pics when its here but seriously... its worth $200 just to not have to make any more cuts or holes in the jeep hahaha.

Dang it, you beat me to it! I just picked up an Aeroforce Interceptor gauge from a guy here on the forum. That gauge is worth the money, even full price. You need would need at least a dozen individual gauges to monitor what this one gauge does. So in reality the Aeroforce is cheaper, by a lot! The best part is it truly is plug and play, no oil lines to tap into, no electrical work, absolutely a great piece of kit for the jeep.
