Began looking into an oil temp gauge to replace the air temp. HD Accessories page says it's not compatible with the FLHXSE.
Anybody know why, or know if it will work?

Looking at the spun gauge to match the rest of the gauges. Here is the info I found:

It will fit and work, It just does not match as the back lighting is different.

Can't you just swap the bulb out?

2010 gauges have no bulb to swap out as they are lit differently. Not sure exactly how they are done inside, but I know a bulb swap is not an option.  That is what I have heard....have not had the fairing off to look yet.

Can someone confirm this??

I've already confirmed it through emails with the MoCo.  Waiting for them to tell me when it will be ready.

What do you want with that gauge after the Dakota's went in?

I knew that was coming......and hoping it wouldn't.   So the moral of this story is everybody that wants a oil temp gauge has to switch to Dakota Digital gauges.   By the way......these gauges also have the head temperature, too.

I was thinking about putting my stock SESG gauges in Terrie's Street Glide.  If I did that, then we need an oil temp gauge.  However, now I'm thinking of putting the red Dakota Digital gauges in her bike.  Decisions, decisions, decisions.

So they are actively working on it or is it in the "abyss" of "coming soon" land?
If it will come out soon I'll just wait ... if it's a "one day soon" thing I may tear one apart and have a look-see.

I would like to see that Oil Temp gauge come out so I can get rid of the useless air temp in mine. Had it on my 06 SG. Guess I can wait for a while.....

I can't remember where I read it, but I think the SESG guages are lit with LEDs and not bulbs.

Bingo, I think we have a winner

I also heard that the SESG gauges are lit in red, and I assume the "standard" SG is lit in white. Does it look like there is anything different in the how the gauges in the SESG are illuminated? If it's just a color thing maybe a red bulb swap in the oil temp gauge to match?

They also probably make LED replacement bulbs for the oil temp gauge - just be a question of finding the right one. Supposedly I have an arrival date of 11/10 for my SR SESG ... I'll be looking into this once it arrives.

Another option might be to swap face-plates with the air temp gauge as long as the sweep range for the needle is the same on both. I think the Dakota package looks great, but not my cup 'o tea. Never been a fan of digital gauges (even in cars) so having a matching solution in analog form would be nice.
