Rotarytronics SuperSimple Ashtray gauge set



As sat-nav cases begin to climb in price and be rarer and rarer to find I figured it was the time to go on a cheaper more easily available method to get some good gauges in an OEM-like package. So here we go, as feature rich as it needs to be, while keeping it simple enough so that it can be easily installed with no special tools or soldering.

cool but that display is tiny and i wouldnt want to try to read it while driving. i have a rb pod for three gauges in that spot and they arent east to glance at. the top of dash gauge pod is easier to read as is the vent pod/pods. neat but not easy to see

Not really needed to be looked at during (spirited) driving. The thing has some gnarly alarm screens with specific buzzer tones to attract attention if something goes south. Otherwise there is no need to glue one's eyes to it.


But I took your suggestion and made the digits larger.


Damn these screens are hard to take a photo of, or I need the summer sunlight in lieu of artificial lighting.

ok thats pretty cool and takes up a lot less space than the rb pod. the important question is can you make the screen read "warning danger to manifold"?
