I run two senders on mine, I have a smaller autometer gauge so I have actual numbers listed for my temperature. The Dakota digital controller is tapped into that, but I also run a stock sender so my stock gauge works as well.
There's enough preset options in the controller that you could probably tie it into the stock sender and have it be pretty close with a little experimentation, but it would be easier to tie it into the autometer sender. I will say that the digital controller is more accurate than the autometer gauge. The sender works fine, but the gauge itself has a calibration issue. It starts out being fairly accurate, but as the temperature increases the gauge gets further and further off. Not a HUGE discrepancy, but its almost 10* at 200. But it is just one of the cheap gauge pod pieces.
