I took the easy way. It's not in the way at all, clearly viewed from the driving position, & easily removable to store or transfer to another car. One little patch of velcro. Installed... Pull down dash cover a bit & snake the phone plug end of the wire through...Use a twist tie to tie the little door up & out of the way, plug in the cable & tuck the excess cord inside the left foot well cover...Driver's view... Removed... Gone... 10 minute install without surgery. If you're braver than I, a little trimming of the storage tray insides might just make it fold right up in there.
Very nice, Looks real clean. I wouldn't be a fan of having to look down at it though...
'04 lava GTSRI, Progress rear sway bar, Infinity reference backs, components in the front, Infinity Kappa 124.7w sub, Alphasonik 600rms@2ohms for the sub, alpine head unit, worst paint ever!

The hardware install certainly looks like something I can handle but how was the software config? I'm going to be passing through LA on a road trip and am considering picking one up from a shop listed on the scangauge website... I remember seeing pictures of someone placing it above the rear view mirror... ::begins searching for instructions on how best to run the cable::
so its basically an onboard diagnostic computer plus gagues? nice. dont think the wife will go for the $170.00 even though its well worth it.Edit: tip: never let the wife manage your money(unless you suck like I do)
Ah, young grasshopper, you have much to learn. When mama's happy - everybody's happy. Save a months worth of pizza and beer money and you'll have ScanGauge money.
well i just ordered one from the scangauge site today =D should be here sometime this week i think. i miss having the distance till empty reading and stuff so i bought one...it's also nice there's a lot of other info. hopefully i can manage my driving habbits with this thing and see if i can improve my mpg some more
