For those that just want something small (2"), simple and will direct install.. Looks good, check it out.. http://www.glowshiftdirect.com/gray-7-color-tachometer-gauge.aspx
thanks for the heads up ..just ordered 1..never really cosied up to the digital 1 I bought, this is much better good find!!!
Looks like it sits deep. My sunpro is only about an 1 & 1/2 deep including the besel. But it is an 1" more round.
As I said, for the DD51T, it is a perfect fit... Even has a hole for the harness between the screew mounts for the inst. cluster... On the job this week but, should be able to install next week.... To the BROWN/WHITE wire; keep the posts going guys...thanks
Installed Glowshift gauges - Tach and Volt gauge The glow shift Tach works great. I also installed one of glowshifts voltage gauges at the same time. Both work just fine and look nice. I mounted the gauges in a two pod dash mount, looks nice. I'll post pics sometime if some one would like to see how the set up looks.
Here's some pics of the gauges Thought I'd post how the gauges look, also a pic of the speedo decals I placed. the conversion numbers are kinda weird but it worked out pretty well I think. The mini project is getting closer, Finally finished the painting - Viper Race Yellow. I'll post more pics in the intro section later when I get a chance
31 and 43 mph markings...brilliant....you know thats cool as all hell to be honest,I bet its the only veh marked that way in history ... kudos.....I wish I had thought of that
All Done-weekend project Looks good and I'm happy with the result, a little fast on the idle there.... I'll have to use one of the posts to locate the screew to turn that down.. No responce on the DIFF LOCK/AXEL LOCK Relocation thread... but I did it anyway... Daddy is happy....now I can SEE the status of the terrain grinding
Night Time Daddy like... Check out the HEADS-UP DISPLAY.. Sorry, phone camera does not do it justice.. Yes, that is a blizzard in the badlands..
My-WAY For those on the DD51t... Coil Brown/White to tach Green...signal Black tach to Black off cig. lighter.. Radio White/Black Ignition...Red tach Radio Red/Black Lights...to Yellow No memory for the last selected colour but I like to be able to turn on the back-ground lighting with the main cluster.... If you like, the Radio WHITE is battery..to yellow, for memory as per instructions..
installed mine today but dark when I finshed so no pics yet..very happy with it..the digital one I had was 600-700 rpm off (hour-metre function was nice but this is still better) I find the red easiest on the eyes at night
Looking forward to it, I find that I'm shifting higher now, and it feels like there's more pones under there. I'm even more happy with the truck. I used to drive @ 80/90k; to "take it easy" as I didn't want to get too close to the "red line" and hurt my baby.... Just did a 600km trip @ 110kph average; 7tRPM Purred like a kitty and held the road like it was on rails; faster, seems to be better... Something to be said for WOT, and I thought they were crazy... Silly rabbit, RTP...
BTW-can't turn down the idle via the screew as per MiniBrutes... Lever just stands free; must have a cable hang-up... I'll check that out next week..
glow shift installed in hijet..you tube vid of it in action..sorry for the sound it's a tad noisy in there as you all know..100kph just over 6000rpm http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=69r47XJp38g
another happy customer... Got my tach today - I ordered it Saturday night (yeah, I know, hot date). I installed it in my Suzi DB51T and it works great. There is a spot just to the left of the radio that is blank and easy to work on by pulling the glove box out. The tach came with an adjustable angle bezel that let me mount it facing the driver and makes it easy to read. It works great and is the perfect size for the mini, the thirty bucks with free shipping is a bonus. I have no idea how long it will work but it is hard to argue the price. Thanks for letting folks know!
Sale still going, and use the code "Ship10" at checkout for 10% off your total above and beyond the free shipping they offer. I just ordered the oil filter sandwich adapter and water hose adapter to install oil pressure/ water temp gauges in my truck.
I ordered P/N "GS-AF2" (which is for oil filter thread size 3/4 - 16) and P/N "GS-AW32" for the water hose adapter. (my upper radiator hose is 32mm/ 1 1/4inch) I just ordered them today, when I get them and install them I will try and post some pics, and give a review? But I would definitely check your own truck's oil filter thread and radiator hose size before ordering. And I don't know about this companies return policies, so far I havent had to return anything or have a reason to contact their customer service. Hope this helps!
