Have anyone added a aftermarked trip computer?Scangauge II 2

[hotrodspike]

I ran the cable under the carpet, up the side of the door, along the front of the screen vent and the Scangauge is on the screen on an American holder ($29 ish). Displays all of the normal parameters (good word that!) plus I've programmed it to display Horsepower.

Cheers.
One question the plug is the same for all cars?
I have an old 98 puma does it mean there are lesser info to get from the pcm?

 

[FlashBastd]

Not sure, think it is the same.

Don't forget on LHD, this will be the drivers footwell, near your clutch foot.

"Club" price, with discount, appears to be around £120, delivered (normally £125).

You could get them cheaper from the US, depending on the exchange rate and if Customs pick them up!

Some of the US offers includd extras, for example another cable for a 2nd car.

In the UK, this place seems to be as good as any to get them for £120 (with club discount):

The cable length is 6 foot.

I just bought a late 97 early 98 Puma, I wonder if scangauge works on too, as it has the analog dash or there any board computer similar to scangauge reliable with the early models
