Don't Hack the Harness to splice in all those Gauges especialy for Ones that's Already can be Gotton threw the OBDII Port

You wont need to watch ECT and EOT Constantly Like that You will get a General Idea and Check them Occasionaly

Oil Cooler clogs Over Time you will see it coming

Cutting into the Harness and Adding all the Wire Ect will throw Readings More wire More resistence it Skews the reading some

If your going to put Senders the Location may decide How Accurite it Reads Anything With a Test PORT is GREAT USE That Spot


Fuel Press
LOW Press OIL
EGT*


That's My .02 You may not like it IDK

I like the 4 pod gauge by the Mirror But sounds like it will need a Little help with how it mounts

My gauges look just like this only black backgrounds. I have only held them in place to see what they look like so haven't taken pictures yet. They pod came with Velcro but I'm not so sure I will use it. Anybody have any suggestions as what to use?

I don't know what the top of that gauge pod looks like, but you could probably get some clips like they use on the back of tape measure to clip to your belt and screw them into it? I saw someone do something with the dollar store tape measures for the scangauge II to mount up there.

Also, the velcro they include with most anything these days is worthless. Go to Home Depot or Lowes or Wal-Mart and get the industrial strength stuff. I bet it holds. I would use double sided tape to keep the wires up on the roofline too.

It slips under the headliner and is suppose to Velcro to the windshield but I thought something else might be better then Velcro.

I installed their 4-pod cluster and can confirm, they block use of the sun visor. If the pod could be made with the gauge openings rotated down to about the 6 o'clock position, it would be fine. The gauges are a little bright at night (even set at N1 with the lights on), but its not bad.

Thanks for the update. I still haven't ordered mine. I'm so indecisive. I can't believe you registered in 2009 and you only have two posts in 4 years! lol I repped you just for that!
