So, I am gonna make all of you drool.
op:
I got tired of the stock message center. So, off I went to Radio Shack, Walmart (tin snips. ) and Tractor Supply Company. I wanted something more modern and less cluttered with expanded use. And since I didn't have ABS, I took that one out! :stab:
Brake Warning ~ Red
Water in Fuel ~ Red
Low Fuel ~ Orange
Wait to Start ~ Green
There is BARELY enough room for 3 gauges and since I wanted to add switches, I stuck with 2. To mount, I used the screws from the back of the message center that holds the computer board on. Also, I am mounting the computer board to the back on a "frame" And it will sit 90* different than before. Think of it as opening a door inwards...
This is the cheapest Aluminum they had and I am gonna use it for a template. The next one will be symmetrical (for the OCD in all of us) and everything done in a kit per say.:nos:
Fire away!
Jon
