instead of paying for the clock and Tach on the dash I installed the new version of the scangauge. Google it, and you will find a ton of information on it. The new model that you can get is only 149.95 if you look around with free shipping. If attaches to the OBD port under your dash and gives you all the information that your computer is doing. Real time RPm's battery voltage, speed , water temp just to name a few. It tracks fuel economy, horsepower, alows you to clear any check engine codes, and helps you identify them if they ever happen. Check out the companies website. It does a ton of things that would take me forever to list here, but it is a good investment I think. Works on any car 1996 and newer. You can tell it when you fill up, how much you pay for gas, and it will tell you how much it costs per mile to run your car.

Very nice install. Someone should try taking the guts out of the Scanguage and making a custom mount - not for the faint of heart and probably not worth the risk of trashing it :)

if we all could be as adventurous as you, my friend! dis-assembling something slightly larger than a pen! to save space!!!! ROTFLMAO
i'd like to get the display inside the speedo! not gonna happen! that is my install, i got the same double DIN panel and the SG2 will reside below the radio (with a hidden compartment, I have a couple of guns that will fit there!)

Looks like that should work good for your setup. I have a few small guns that would work well in there also... My Kel-Tec comes to mind. But when I am not working, I still carry a Full size Sig P245. Check out the photo... See if you can guess my occupation.

i got a beretta and an intratec that will fit, i've had my eye on a kel-tec P-3AT for a while.

if we swapped a few panels, we could have a couple of black and whites!
