Anyone out there try one of these things - look to be pretty interesting...

read my mind.. bump..

I have one. I have the 1004 unit that goes on top of the dash. I also have the shift/warning light that I attached to the left side of the factory column boost guage. I have had it since the beginning of April.

So what are your impressions? Is it worth the cost? Do you need additional sensors to monitor oil pressure and temp, etc.?

Yeah, I love it. It works for me because it has the function of 10 or more guages without the ricer boy look of guages on my dash, in my vents, up my A column (:lol: ) in my ashtray, etc. You do need about 275 bux worth of sensors to read oil pressure and temperature.

The only drawback is the display gets a little dark and unreadable when the daytime temps start to climb.:(

They have a new screen comming out pretty soon to help combat that.

I was told that it was not user installable. Also you may be paying damn near new price.

I've been considering one (since John Felstead posted his) in pod mount form.

For you pod mount folk: are you worried about theft of this nifty device? It seems, if you know what it is, its such and easy thing to steal, just pop it off the dash and unplug the OBD port.

Also, how usable are the readings (given optimal visiblity light conditions) at speed? Can you make out boost or temps quickly? As quickly as with a normal gauge?
