Anyone know if it´s possible to increase the volume on the little buzzer beeping when you hit the 9000 rpm? I would like it to be slightly louder so if anyone knows how to do it, pleae let me know.

(YEAH! I must be the only idiot on earth that wants this mod...

or even attach an LED to it....

Maybe one of the forums "circuit gurus" can take a feed off the little buzzer to a relay, then you could run anything - lights, beeper, siren, whatever.

I tried but it is powered all the time, and grounded to beep, so I got confused and put the whole thing back together!

...this is the little bastard -

is it the same buzzer that chimes when the key is in and the door open? If so, I want to kill that stupid thing soo bad...

Replacing it with an LED is a good idea tho

If the door beeper bugs you, just disable it - Gomez did the DIY (IIRC) - he's my all time bestest Hero!

maybe you should reprogram it to say "You're out of the powerband numnuts, hurry up and F'ing shift already"

I think they should have the actual red portions of the redline light up when your needle moves in it. That would be pretty cool.

I just bought my 8 and I haven't hit the buzzer yet because I am following proper break in. When do you guys think it's ok to hit 9000.

Yeah, if I'm listening to the radio loud there have been occasions I haven't heard the buzzer. Something louder or that lit up would be nice.

I can hardly hear mine with the windows down, a bright LED and louder buzzer would be really nice.

maybe if you're revving the engine out you should be paying attention to what you're doing, just an idea ...

change your tires. getting something other than the loud as hell stock bridgestones instantly makes the buzzer louder.

OMG haahha that really made me laugh out loud.

A louder buzzer when pushing hard would be easier to recognize allowing more focus on other aspects of driving.

OK, what do I know ...

I want to install a Red 3mm LED to the buzzer on the back of the Instrument Cluster.
(it'll light up when I reach the beep)
I've done a search and can't find any pix on how to remove it.

Anyone care to help?

There is a description:
1. Remove #3 screws that hold the steering shroud.
2. Remove #2 screws that hold the instrument cluster (I'm not sure where these little buggers are?!?).
3. YANK the crap out of it and it "should" come loose....

I'll post a DIY if I can figure this out.

Petrus

Man... getting the instrument cluster out is the easy part.

1. Remove #3 screws that hold the steering shroud. (You see these when lying on you back looking up at the steeringwheel)
2. Remove #2 screws that hold the instrument cluster (You´ll see these as well once you´ve done #1 above)
3. YANK the crap out of it and it "should" come loose.... (YEAH it should.
