Default Thanks!

I think the installation manual must have been bad
in its original German, but it's simply hideous
in English! Luckily, it's a good product done
right, so you can pretty much figure out what's
supposed to do what...

Default A couple pics are posted in the thread linked to above...

but WTH, here they are, too:

Unit under dash before securing. White connector goes
to stereo- blue wire gets spliced in behind
steering wheel, boost line and oil temp wires below.
<IMG SRC="http://www.ttguy.com/efu/IMGP1357_c.JPG">

Part of the final display:
<IMG SRC="http://www.ttguy.com/efu/IMGP1362_c.JPG">
It also shows Oil Temp, Voltage, and speed, and
(optionally) the normal radio/CD display. You can
set alarms on any sensor and set a "favorite" that
the display switches to after a short delay when
youv'e switched to view some other value.

Nice piece of equipment overall, at least that's
today's impression!

Default techreactions.com ...

They don't have a V1 mode yet, but supposedly are
working on it. I'm not holding my breath though as
they've been "working on it" for quite some time. Still, it offers enough as it is that it
was worth it for me. If the V1 module ever comes
along, then bonus time!

Cost is currently $470 (from techreactions.com).
Pricey, but not any more than three gauges and mounts...
You'll also need radio removal tools.
I paid $5 or so for mine from Clair.
