Speedway/summit/jegs has kits or just the sending unit
It's just like adding an aftermarket gauge, except the temp sending unit closes at a certain temp and turns on the light.

In the buggy I used the Summit tach with water,oil and volt gauges inside the face. Bad part is the gauges are really too small to glance at and get a good reading, my eyes aren't getting better these days either.
So I ordered up a low oil pressure and high water temp warning light kits from Jegs, same as the above link, because they had trigger points for the light that fit my needs.
I absolutely love the lights, when they come on you notice it immediately.
Red for low oil pressure, blue for high water temp, smaller red and green are alternator and check engine light.
There are also 3 gauge kits out there that include warning light for each gauge.

usually a temp sending unit will work better if it is submerged in fluid, so you need to find another spot to put your sending unit (rather than using a T).
There should be another place on the intake to put a sending unit (or a boss that hasnt' been drilled/tapped yet)
