Safety upgrade Digital speedo actual engine temp overheating alarm

Post by darrylrobert »

Im so happy with this OBD2 digital gauge ive decided to install it in my DIM. 1st problem is where to squeeze it in, i think where the turn indicators are is the best, the size of the screen isnt bad because the volvo arrows are pretty big. The bottom corners will be obscured.

I will install a patch OBD2 cable with a relay on the power because it is draining my battery. Ignore the white paint and mistake holes.

The turn indicators needed to be relocated, this is the only place there is room.
