I havnt written anything on the water temp gauge yet because I havnt finished it yet. I am going to use its wiring harness to debug the issue with the oil temp gauge, and the weather has been too crappy to get under the car lol

finally, something I added because I didnt like the way that I was powering the gauges. I used an "add-a-circuit" to tap into the fuse panel inside the car. I didnt want to run 7 gauges and all their sensors off one little wire.
So like I have been known to do.. I went overboard
I installed my own custom fuse box that I got from Jegs.
its a lot bigger in person than it looked in pictures I didnt know what I was going to do when I got it lol
I found a nice location thats fairly easy to get to, but is also fairly hidden. Behind the glove box on the firewall!
I ran 8 gauge wire to the fuse box and a dedicated ground with also with 8 gauge.
I went overboard with all this, because eventually the little UMPC conputer is going to be monted and run all the time also. I can run anything from this fuse box
Here is the view of it from the passenger seat after its installed.
The camera is actually sitting on the seat, so from the passengers eye level you cant see it at all.
Your car is Gauge-A-Rific!!! I think you have them all covered
hahaha yes it is.. like I mentioned I tend to go overboard.. but once I found out I could log everything in the computer that I was already planning in installing in the car.. I went nuts
I keep thinking I am forgetting tons of things.. feel free to ask any questions and I will respond as best I can.
I will add more to this when I finish off the rest of the gauges
All I can say is wow!!! You did a great job, and it looks so cleanly done
Thanks man.. its been far from a weekend job tho.. could have got it done in two weekends if I had the time to work both days and more sunlight hours lol
but I have done it a piece at a time
