Installation took all of five minutes. Pulled out my cubby, ran the line behind the dash, plugged everything in, and popped the mount into the hole formerly taken up by the cubby. It took more time to stage and take the pictures than the actual installation

Here is the pic showing where I ran the line:



Here is the shot plugging the wire into the unit:



The final product:



Overall, it was a great experience, Alex is easy to deal with, and the part is absolutely simple to install. If you are looking at adding a Scangauge to your car, this definitely make it a clean install. I would recommend it!

It tells you all this...

The gauge and code reader will allow you to monitor intake air temp, water temp, mpg, battery voltage, throttle position sensor, fuel system loop status, cost per mile, gallons or liters per hour, ignition timing, engine loading, mph, and RPM.

It will also allow you to adjust the background color of the unit and scan/clear engine codes.

Check it out at ScanGaugeII : Linear Logic - Home of the ScanGauge

If you would like to trial it... the program is as follows:

Deposit 100 dollars to my paypal: ahflores@ufl.edu
I will send out a mounted unit that is plug and play for your car, trial it for a week and send it back. I will pay for shipping both ways plus I will refund you 70 dollars once I receive it. If you would like to keep it, just send me 50 dollars more and its yours forever!
