In car gadgets
Hi everyone,I've just bought a 1.3 fiesta 2000, its very basic on the in gadgets inside.
I'm wanting to have a few things straight off but i have a limited knowledge so any help is much appreciated.
If i can i want to do everything myself, both to save on labour costs and to build up my own knowledge, plus that self satisfaction of doing things yourself.
First off i want a rev counter, can i get a universal one that can easily be fitted,
also after a few other gauges like oil, engine temperature, water, temperature of outside, if i can i wouldn't mind a gauge that shows mpg (but i getthe feeling fitting this might be beyond me)
i bought an aftermarket alarm system which converted it to central locking, this has a setting on that closes the windows when locked but i have manual windows, how difficult is it to change these to electric?
Fitting things like air con and heated seats, can i do it easily, or would it be more hassle than its worth?
Also, ive seen plenty of built in satnavs where you can tap the screen and it switches to the cd player or stats on the car etc, my cars never seen anything that advanced but if i wanted to fit one would it have to be speacially made and programed to the cars stats ie fuel consumption.
Cheers for looking, and the help would really be appreaciated
