::GeoffGT's Garage:: 2009 Red Hot Metallic GT

Post by GeoffGT »

This is right after I bought the car.

The dual-tone Wolo horns, painted red.

Just a little red paint under the hood.
Image
Got the windows tinted. I forget what percentage but it is the same all around.
Image
K&N Typhoon installed.
Image
GM Window visors. I went with these for the nonfunctional but cosmetic "3rd" window. Continuity is my friend.
Image
Custom ScanGaugeII install.

Random shot.

Glad to see you're back Geoff :)! I'm looking forward to seeing more pictures of your Vibe again! Have you done anything new to it lately?

I like how you mounted that ScangaugeII. How do you have the cord to the OBD2 connector routed? I got a cheaper scan tool. I got the Ultragauge since I could not justify spending $150 for the SGII when I could get this one for $69 and it does what I needed to do. I have a 2012 Scion XB and Toyota went cheap and dropped the temp gauge for a full time clock. I got this Ultragauge just for the temp and battery voltage

Here is a pic of mine in my XB

Keep up the good work on your car

Hey it's good to be back Carrie! Thanks. I haven't done much lately. I did paint the calipers though. But that's about it. I did the gold color. Wanted something different than red or yellow. :D

Thanks for the kind words Journeyforce. My buddy did the custom install on the SG2. The cable is routed under the dash to the OBD2 port; it's basically just tucked up behind everything. In hindsight, I wish the gauge was angled toward me just a bit, but oh well. I like the display on your gauge! Very clean.
