Just little updates lately.

Got an old centre console lid I hate floating around to fill the void in the top of dash, made it look all nice with some carbon wrap

Also got some more gauges.
Water temp (running with a resistor on the sender wire to “fake” a temp as the games don’t output water temp)
Battery voltage (measures voltage at PSU)
And boost (works with turbo vehicles and shows TPS value in non turbo vehicles)

Also replaced steering wheel with a race type one and cut up the original wheel to use as a boss kit :lol:

Thanks, yeah the commy wheel was ok, but it was such a large diameter the poor young fellas have to swing off it to turn. And was really heavy and hard on the peripherals. But looked cool haha

Sorry for the ancient thread dig.
Hey HSV08. I got the VT tach working in the VT cluster today. Using Sim hub, take D9 from the Arduino, put through a diode ; other end of diode drop to ground via a 470 ohm resistor and send to pin 18 on the cluster. Speedo next :)
