Someone can correct me here but I recall that no speedo is a sign that rear wheel sensor is not working.

<Now I have no speedo

I'm hoping that it's that simple. I had no speedo the last time it happened, and it was the ABS computer (but I also had no tach, no A/C, temp guage was pegged, etc...)

Its an aftermarket and coolant is leaking from the bottom. I have another AM on the way. I know, I know buy OEM but she's gone through two of those also. I still love her she just wants attention and money.

Installed Zex remote bottle opener. Got tired of having the bottle open and not using it or not having it open and needing it.

I went for a drive and tried it. Couldn't hear the motor running and can't look at the switch when driving so I added an amber LED right in front of me in the dash that lights up only when the bottle is opening.

FYI-- the other hole in the tray is for next mod.

I see that you positioned the dial horizontally in the arm rest cargo area so a quick sideways glance while driving can read it... Little touches like that make all the difference- well played.
