But,,.. its not like you have to rewire everything. Just connect the new wire harness to each respective source that you already have wired. i.e. 12v power, ground, sender, etc..

For the Halo series, what are the chances that either;
1. Some sort of fix/update be made available where you can program the gauges and then unplug the module.
or
2. Make a new module where the buttons are not so sensitive. Either with actual push buttons or dip switches.
The gauges are GREAT! Don't get me wrong, but the programming module is h o r r i b l e...

2. I like having the sensitive touch. Push buttons would be such a PITA especially when you want to quickly change things (example i do white during day, amber at night)

1. I can assume slim to none. How exactly would you update the device anyway, no visible jtag or I/O port of sort. Would be a nice feature, but at that rate you might just want to get the Premium Gauges

It would be nice if Prosport could make a push button module as an option which I'm positive people will appreciate, especially those who want to program and then hide the module behind the gauge pod, like me.

Here are the install pics when we installed the pod in my car. My gauges are 60mm Prosport Premium.
Taking the dash apart. You can see aipex8's through the windshield
Laying down the template
Outlined with a silver sharpie
Used a Dremel to cut the dash
Dash is cutout for the pod. Still needs to be cleaned up a bit
Quick test fit

2) So like premium series with the halo ring ? Dip switches in the back?-nobody wants to remove the gauge to make a change!

1) I have seen a few guys do just that, program then let the module lay (still attached) behind the gauge. With all the features, colors, lighting brightness, peak,warning, etc. you need someway to control it. We do also have the same gauge without all the features (no touch pad) but in our testing 80% wanted to the features and able to set it how they wanted for their vehicle.

I guess we can make a DIY terminator for the control module for the guys that want to remove their remote right? Right now removing the remote makes the Peak light blink. I assume that one of those pins senses the connection to the remote? Maybe grounding one of those pins will make the gauge "think" its connected. Just throwing that idea out there in case someone wants to take that route.
