FrankenRover 10-21-2002, 03:03 PM Here are some picts of some goodies I got from the UPS man today. Just like Christmas man!!! Keep in mind, gauge positions are not finalized at this point. Billster FrankenRover 10-21-2002, 03:05 PM Here is a close up of the 3 gauges in the dash: Tach - 4000 rpm Boost Gauge - woohoo EGT Billster FrankenRover 10-21-2002, 03:06 PM Adjustable VDO speedo (need it for the 38"ers and 4.75 gears). Billster FrankenRover 10-21-2002, 03:07 PM And finally the other 3 gauges that will reside in the dash area to the right of the instrument cluster. Billster Serious One 10-21-2002, 04:15 PM Hey Bill, What's an egt guage? Exhaust Gas Temp??? Looking good! You should have told me you were going VDO. I have a couple 'extra' if you know what I mean. ;) ;) Rover Addiction 10-21-2002, 07:02 PM Lookin great, Bill! I put my 3 extra gauges in my D90 in a center console mount that I made from the center mount out of a D90 SW. That might work for you too. Where did you get your gauges from? Oh yeah, and did you get the VW oil pressure sensor w/ idiot light switch? How are you doing your Speedo sender? One last question: Are you planning on running a fuel gauge or just using the Force? :D :D -John P.S. Serious One, EGT = Exhaust Gas Temp Don't want to roast that turbo! What gauges have you got available? FrankenRover 10-21-2002, 07:55 PM I will try to use the stock center dash that came with my 97 D90. Looks like all three will fit. I did get the oil pressure sender with both the psi, and the warning light output. Gonna definitely use the Force to keep track of the fuel level. The Tdi never runs outta gas anyway (what do you get, about 25 mpg?). I will reuse my 97 D90's LT230 speedo sender. Got the gauges from www.egauges.com for about $550 for the whole thing including all the senders (EGT was the most expensive with the sender). Billster Serious One 10-22-2002, 08:58 AM RoverAddiction, I think I have an oil temp, fuel guage, and some other random stuff. Let me check for sure. Bill, you might think about using the Hall Effect from VDO for the speedo. I don't know if your cable you already have will work? Could be wrong, because I know several others have done it already. Hmm....maybe I should shut up. FrankenRover 10-22-2002, 04:37 PM Mike, I think this is the hall effect speedo (that uses the 97 electronic sender from the tcase). At least that is what I ordered.
