Ambient temperature Gauge 900 1995

Ok so the new 95 940 I picked up today has a nice feature that I haven't seen before. An ambient temperature gauge is mounted in the dash below where the fuel gauge is in the row of idiot lights on the left hand side. So my questions are: Does anyone have the part numbers and installation instruction/part list for installing an Ambient temperature Gauge into a 940 that doesn't have one? Is there anything (option) that would go on the right side across from the Ambient temperature Gauge in the row of idiot lights?



BTW one thing I like about the 95 is that the window switches light up!

Yes, lots of bricksters have asked about installing one. They are a nice addition to your dash information, but unless you can find one from a salvage yard, you might find the price to be prohibitive. The car, depending on the year, (although I'm not familiar with the 940s) could have the wiring lume in place as OEM which will save ou time and money. It can be easily determined by inspecting under the airdam, just off center (driver's side) and up out of the way, Then it's a matter of installing the dash reader and the sensor under the front bumper, which from a dealer will be over $200, w/o lume.
