Getting a bit ahead of myself here, but after the car comes back from the bodyshop and has been mapped properly, one of the next steps is to fit up some proper gauges.
I really miss not having a water temp gauge etc.
I'm really after having a couple of gauges fitted, so what two would you go for?
And most importantly how difficult are they to fit for someone with next to no electrical experience? Do you get everything you need to fit normally etc.
Many Thanks
BA

No one replied to this I've decided on water temp and volt gauge. What is involved to fit such, also I have another accessory (12v) which needs a power source, where is the best place to hook it up to the 12v supply, it just has one wire for 12v supply and one for earth. Thanks

I've sorted it, despite no action on this thread!!!!!!!!
Both gauges working a treat, hopefully getting them mounted to a pod this weekend!
I was very proud of them although they are not rocket science to fit, never really done any major electronics work before, apart from fit rear speakers.
When they are all mounted properly will post pictures up, hopefully early next week.

Why did you decide to go for voltage rather than oil temp?

Why - Thank You!
They look great especially now wired up in a proper pod, I will post pics up as soon as I have it back, whilst the new fuel tank is fitted!
