Where did you put the little guy? Ive been thinking about putting it on the left side of the cluster on top of the dash but it just barely fits. I dont really want it on the right side since that cable would be showing.

Also thought about putting it on top of the steering wheel but it blocks half of the gauges, including the tranny temp light which always needs to be seen.

Any ideas?

Doublesided foam tape - above the radio

(although I'm going to take it off - it causes problems on the CRD)

I put it on the left side for now. Its fairly easy to get to and reach to change the gauges and such. Ive got a trip coming up this weekend so we will see.

Its a pretty neat little deal for sure. Ive not gotten to use it much yet but I love all the gauges it gives. Kinda amazed, today it was 70F and the intake air temp was 90F, 131F when I first started it with a hot engine. Water temp hangs around 195F and volts are 13.5-13.8. I would like to know how it determines the engine load. Today I was slowly accelerating up a in 3rd gear(O/D off) and it said the engine load was 99%. At idle or coasting its around 20%, light acceleration gives ~50-70%.

I did basically the same thing, I have a ScanGuage Series 1 so it's double the size so I used one of the generic non-slip pads at parts stores or even at the grocery store with double sided tape. Great at night but hard to see in the daylight soem times.

I was just going to post the same question. It really sucks that there are no nice flat spots anywhere on this dash! Looked at the locations mentioned this past weekend and still not happy w/ any of them.

I just mounted the velcro right over the center of the cluster. I leave it connected at work and at home, but disconnect and put it out of sight when I leave my CRD parked in public.

Center of the console makes getting to the buttons very easy, I can use either or both hands and with my wrists on the steering wheel. display is not in the way and easily seen.

This is what I have for my XM Radio...kinda pricey for some powdercoated metal, but it works perfect for mounting just about anything like that.

Although I haven't done it, the best place I saw was attached above to the rear view mirror but u hafta run the cable all along the glass. I just put it onto the steering column temporarily.

Hare on my Chest

Playing with my ScanGaugeII in her Jeep we set it under the ashtray. Not handy for the driver, but visible.

I couldn't decide where to put mine, so I ran the wire like you have yours except a little further and set it between the windshield and the high point of the dash so it is directly in my field of vision. I tucked the wire in between the windshield and dash just with my finger and it seems to be holding the scangague pretty good. I take it out and put it in another vehicle occasionally and swap it back and forth so I never bothered to velcro it. Not really a professional installation but it works ok for me since I am moving it between 2 vehicles.
