As I recall, my 1970 500S had such a warning. When I took delivery of the plane, the warning system was not operating and I nearly ran out of fuel twice as I was transitioning from a plane with 5 hours fuel capacity to the Shrike that had a little over 4 hour fuel capacity.
$4200.00... Wow,that is why I no longer fly a 500S. I now fly a Piper Geronimo. I sure loved the 500S...until I did a spreadsheet on it and discovered what it was costing per hour for me to fly it for pleasure. It doesn't take long to remove the pleasure from it.
I remember that 1/2 of a back door hinge was $950.00 for the part plus install...I still have the part. I also remember that a small hydraulic regulator needed exchange for a rebuilt one and it was $6000.00 plus a core charge.
So I guess that $4200.00 is not "out of line" for the warning system.

A message from Twin Commander’s Brian Harbaugh:
As a result of the Flight Group meeting in Tennessee, Twin Commander has researched and confirmed availability of Custom Kit (CK) 110 “Fuel Low Level Warning System”.
CK110 places a switch on the transmitter at the center fuel cell. The switch will activate a warning light at 31 gallons of fuel remaining.
If you are interested in the kit please contact your Twin Commander Authorized Service Center. Twin is waiting on your response prior to ordering inventory. We estimate the list price to be $4200.00.
Your input is appreciated.
