I'm back and forth on this one...

Is it worth getting?
What are the features you use most?


tia

 

it rocks. get it with an extra cable so that you can hardwire it into your ride, and still use it to diagnose other cars.

i use:
code scan
mpg
tank to emtpy
intake temp
water temp
volts


edit: stupid kbd.

 

I love mine and use it everyday!

 

I also have been back and forth. I would definitely get one if I could get that holder for it Kingxofxska has ^^^^. Otherwise, i'd have nowhere to put it and would hate it always getting in my way!

 

After seeing KingxOfxSka's custom inset... I'm getting one

 

crap that looks like a great all in one type of meter.
Slick install by the way.

 

How do you plan on making the inset? If somebody were to sell these insets......

 

^i beleive doc i sells em give him a pm

 

The Scangauge site says... "Make and store up to 10 rewritable special codes to send to the vehicle computer" ...but has no description or examples of what those codes would be or do.
Anyone do this yet?

 

Mounts? All kinds of mounts!!

 

^ you'd be the first I'd surf for a mount.

Back on topic...

hmm... i could make my own i guess... got some stuff laying around...

though it'd be nice to have like a template or something..

lol.

 

I have one, but I barely use it because I have nowhere to put it. Its really handy when you or your friends have the CEL.

 

I can make the inset from the materials and tools I have at work. Easy, course I don't know the exact material that he used for his inset. But I don't see it being all to complicated.

 

PM Dr_Isotope .... that where I got my mount from.

 

Hmm, i'd get it just for the mpg estimate, haha. I saw a GB for it, hopefully there will be a good deal for it.

 

That's me, just closed it but with interest I'll open one up in a bit...

As for the Scangauge for the price there is nothing that comes close in terms of functions and ease of installation, you can be up in running in seconds after unboxing it you can even change the lighting to match your interior!
...hardest part is deciding where you like to put it and Dr_Isotope has got you covered there!

 

or just slap it on your headliner in front of you with the velcro...

 

Yay I just purchased mine, will be installing it next time I see my baby.

Just looking at KingxOfxSka's picture of his install. I'd make the mounting plate out of plexiglass. Sand it down a little then use black texture paint. Take the dremmel tool and cutout the spacing for the gauge to squeeze into. Use some rubber sealant to hold it in place. As for holding the mount in the dash I would need to see it in person, my car is in CO and I'm in CA at the moment so it makes it a little hard.
