Love this forum!


EDIT: And not that its right in front of me and so obvious, doh, feel like a complete dope for not thinking of is sooner...
Same here. Just realized I need to do the idiot temp gauge in the cluster programming with the laptop to make it a real functional gauge that actually shows the real temp status. Thanks to the forum.

I can't claim credit for this idea but I wanted to do it in a more factory implemented manner than I had seen. Found this battery cutoff (think it's designed for boats?) and thought I could integrate it cleanly.

Thanks OB, high praise from you. I'm very pleased with the result and I've used it quite a bit over the last few days while working on the stereo. Now, I'll have to keep an eye on it though as 80stech has me paranoid about my soldering work on that large OE battery terminal. I guess time will tell.

BTW, good to see you again. Hadn't seen you on for a few weeks (not that I'm stalking or anything ), but figured you had some work stuff going. Congrats on those finishes btw, saw them in the other thread.
