Cheers rick- so even a adufus like em could install this

My only worry is as the pumas OBD port is in the passenger foot well- is there any way of plugging it in more safely?

Could a asecond OBD Port be added? or the Scan gauge cable be spliced into this conectors wires?
 
Dogsbody, FlashBastd or spike are probably the best people to advise on where the ran the wiring. Personally, I wouldn't try to splice another port.
 
Found this site in the us http://www.mileagepros.com/products/scangauge/sgxmchristmassale.php" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; works out at £111 approx delivered!

Only problem is I don't know how much import tax you will have to pay, still might be cheaper than uk price. Does anybody know how much tax one would have to pay?
 
Thanks guys,
Looks very cool. From a scale 1-10 how well do it perform if you compare it with a original trip computer that comes from the factory?

I would like to get one. The wiring stuff is it hard to figure out?

The obd port is that the port you normally would use for fault message searching?
The one comes out from the PCM?
 
I think so

Its the one were if you have a Bluefin handset like me that you plug it in there (Near tyhe bottem right corner of the door)
 
Allright:--) thanks.
Is that all, just one plug and its done? Very nice.
Just wondring where I shuld put the lcd .
 
wiring is dead easy, its an angled connector, to the OBD port, just run the wire up behind the carpet.

You'll probably need to cable it on to the socket, as my passenger is forever kicking it off!

The hardest thing is where to put it on the dash!

Really??
 
If you have the later ScanGauge with Xgauge installed, you can add extra readings, for example, horsepower:

I've dropped an email to a distributor to see if we can get a "Club" discount, will post the answer.
