A new project for my car has started.
I want to show you what's going on and of course want to know what you are think about it.

Here are the first pictures. At the moment I'm waiting for additional things - the pod and adapters for the sensors are not here for example.

Wires are in place, the gauges waits for the pod...

Update:

The project is finished - look at the pictures, if there any questions, please ask.

Gauges (water- and oiltemp and oilpressure)





wires (left for watertemp, right for oiltemp and pressure












The panel before and after painting:




The adapters from RacingBeat and ProSport:




All is done and works fine:






Nightview - headlights on - red gauges



headlights off - white gauges

What did you wire into? The fuse box?

 

Make sure you double-ground the sensors or they are rather inaccurate. I installed two extra ground wires on the sensors and now they read very accurately.

 

where is the gauge pod???
Wanna see the setup

 

You mean I should ground the sensors at the engine, too ??? Additional to the wires, that came with the sensors ?

 

Not here at the moment - I'm still waiting for it, cause it is a custom made pod I have to wait for it.
But it is not a secret, I think you know it - look at here.

 

At the moment there are only the wires for the three sensors. On the pictures you can see left the wire for the watertemp sensor and right the two wires for oiltemp and -pressure.

 

Great choice. Worth waiting for.
SiLVeRE8 did an awesome job.

Mine is done.

Now !!! Added to my first post.

 

Nice panel, did you make that?

 

No, as I said before, SiLVeRE8 (member of this forum) did this great job.

 

Your set up looks great wanna see some night pics
Do you plan on doing a DIY on this

 

Nice! Congrats on the installation and I am glad you are enjoying the pod!

 

Added 3 night pics - sorry for poor quality. Without flash there is no better quality possible.

 

the gauges at night match the interior lights very well!
