You'd have to custom make one...They don't make trans guages for many manuals, and AFAIK they are usually only in high HP racing applications. Besides there is no oil pan to tap a sensor into. Why do you need one?

I've seen the sensor put in a T connection and then taped in to the line from the trans to the rad but do a search.

Manual transmissions dont have lines running to the radiator, they dont have trans coolers from the factory. Just autos.

I can see why you'd want a temp gauge, tranny gets hot during the summer, can even feel the heat through the tranny tunnel wall.. it cools off quickly by just letting it sit for 10min..
