Played around a tad with my new HU over the weekend to get the ShadowDash programme altered more to my liking. Entered gauge type, limits and warning levels for each one. Makes it easier to view and see when I'm running into the yellow (warning) or red (alert) levels. Can see this on 1st screen and warm-up enrichment or in last with AFR settings. Managed to save my settings this time so I don't wipe when accidently resetting to defaults.
Played with the stereo settings and equilizer. Have the sounds going very well now and am impressed with the quality as compared to my Pioneer. Will attach some pics of the functions but it works really well.
Also built a make shift screen to help with the glare that comes in from rear window and T-tops. Started with a beer box cardboard cut-out and am developing a decent design that simply slots into place when required. Still needs some work but I've tried anti-screen protectors with limited success in the past. Consider it a work in progress.

I really love the look of this. Can't decide between this or factory cup holders
May end up retrofitting a arduino lcd or similar somewhere into the dash to provide vitals

Re: NZ Map Software Help Please ?
Looks great Jim. Good effort getting it all working. This is a very nice way to add in heaps of gauges without going all 2000 Tokyo Auto Salon crazy with the cockpit covered in gauges.
Haltech have just released a small single gauge that can do the same as this setup. One gauge to rule them all but needs a CAN ECU to run it.

Factory cup holders you say! Hard decision!Gleshlich wrote:I really love the look of this. Can't decide between this or factory cup holders

Thanks for the comments but I still have a way to go. The screens shown are edited versions of the default ones supplied. When you look at what others create from scratch it really becomes impressive.
