I can see wanting to get your name out there, but I think this product alone will do that, and the little logo is unnecessary. Or just keep it a removable sticker- this is something that helps decrease clutter. The kind of person that wants this probably doesn't want to add clutter in the form of a logo that doesn't match anything else in the cluster at all. Considering the number of replies in this thread already, I don't think the advertisement from the logo is necessary. Good products sell themselves.

I apologize if this has already been coverd, but where exactly is this getting its signal from?

IIRC the factory sender is a POS and not to be trusted. Not to mention, if you get an air pocket or low enough on fluid it wont read the temp because it must have constant contact with h20?

Please do explain. You seem to be on to something but i'd like to here the above concerns addressed. Also, please keep the logo removable.

dude, you read the thread? Seriously. Everything you just asked has been addressed.

Looks like a rad product, might pick one up for the daily, I have a PFC with commander and a water gauge in the coupe, lol, makes it kinda pointless.

But I would throw one in my hatch for sure, great idea.

Thanks! But it still seems like its pulls from the factory sending unit which is notorious for being shitty. I understand that this will give an exact and accurate reading of what the SENSOR reads, but that doesn't do much if the sender itself sucks. Or is there another sensor or am i just confused as usual?

LOL.

^ there are 2 temp sensors.
Factory Gauge temp sensor sucks
Factory ECU temp sensor is right next to it and works great.
What they're doing is splicing into the ECU temp, so it's a decent sender running into a MUCH nicer gauge.


Great product here, if i hadn't picked up a water temp gauge to deal with the inaccuracies of the factory one.... i would have gotten one of these.

NM - Looks like they're taking pre-orders.

My suggestion = Make the Logo removable

yea, or make the logo gray outline or something, a little more subtle.

I dunno, if the customer hates the logo they can paint over it.

I personally don't give a shit, I'll go the laziest route possible.

Very interested, I would ditch my water temp gauge to get one of these, easier to read, it's right in front of you.

The cutout for the digital readout looks crooked. I would buy one if it looked a little cleaner.

Edit: Didn't see your post on saying the final version will be much cleaner. When you get pics of the final version I will most likely purchase one.

Ditto. This would be great to eliminate the need for too many aftermarket products.

Fuel gauge plus oil pressure gauge would be pimp. It seems the fuel gauge is never really that accurate.
