Back in Stock and Shipping. Aftermarket Unimog 404 Coolant Temp Conversion Kit. This VDO 12/24 Gauge and Sending unit is a direct replacement for the expensive 0015424705 CAPILARY TUBE original gauge.

Conversion Kit includes the following:

VDO 12/24 Gauge, and Bulb
VDO Gauge Reducer Ring
VDO Temp Sender
Thermal Seal Heat Shrink Ring Terminals
Assorted Installation Hardware and Installation Instructions

Installation will require basic hand and electrical tools, heat gun/lighter (for heat shrink terminals) and 16-18 Gauge Wire - approx. 60"

A great little kit, gauge blends in nicely, the only way to go if the original system has failed.
