Hey

I have a small project for my BMW e30 ( M50 engine ) and for my friend BMW e36 (M50 engine ) i want to install aftermarket gauges like for ( water temperature / oil pressure / etc ) but i have a couple of questions

1- Can i buy a sensor alone and then buy the gauge and connect them together ?

2- I want to make OLED gauge with Arduino but I don’t know what the sensor i need like do i need a special sensor that can communicate with the Arduino or any sensor car work ?

3- Can i use OEM sensor and connect it with aftermarket gauges like for ( RPM / KPH ) ?

4- How can i take the signal from the sensor do i need to take the signal from ECU or from the sensor itself ?

5- If the Arduino project can be done where can I learn to make it ?

6- How can i wire them together ? I saw some videos to how to make the light with switch light and how power the gauges

7- How sensors and gauges communicate with each other’s?
