The gauge design blends with other dash gauges to give it a classy, factory-installed look. We've even prepared a detailed photo tutorial outlining the installation, so the fun can start as soon as you open the box.

Only when this is locked, the valve opens and the oil can be drained into the provided container. When disconnecting the hose connector, the valve closes automatically and you only have to turn on the cap.
