Hi Paul

I got mine off Mike Rainbird, i had it installed by someone he knew and was 20quid. It displays RPM, Coolant temp, ACT temp, - & + boost in BAR, accelerator 0-100%, battery voltage.

Mine is installed where the clock once was.

don't think you will need external gauges as the monitor does the main ones.

could fit a oil pressure/temp one.

Deffo the green one for the saff as the dash lights up green anyway.

Come to the swindon Pub meet and you can see mine.

Show you what it dose and then you can make ur mind up

The only down side is there is no oil pressure

Which in my opinion is the most important!!!
