[updated] Passenger window switch swap for Voltmeter

[skidmark]

The little ebay volt/temp meter turned up today so thought I'd 1st run a quick test against my multimeter and its a little out, but I'd say its acceptable for its use.

The size is a little smaller in width and quite a lot in height, but hopefully workable. At least its not too big as that would of been harder to make fit.

So over the weekend, I'm going to try and get it to fit without gaps.







Will update the post when I get it wired in and fitted.

What are you wiring it into. Just any 12v feed and body ground?

Great little mod, very interested. Looking forward to seeing your updates.

I took apart the window switch and cut the front off, so I could hot glue the meter to it. It mostly went well, but its not as tidy as I would have like.

Hoping to improve the little gap at the top when I can think of something.



I ran the power to the cigarette lighter after removing the speedo/dash and routing it there.

Where are you taking the temp reading from, I presume there's a sensor wire on the unit? Been looking at doing the clock change mod but not got round to it yet.
