digidash position

Hello just looking for some input on where to mount my digidash 2.

How does it fair in sunny weather can you read the screen especially the red one is it worth trying to mount it with some kind of shade just above it ?

Whats best behind the steering wheel or to the left of the steering wheel in the centre of the dash ?

Cheers

From personal experience if you can get it behind the wheel (which should be possible with the DD2) then definitely do it.

I have a DD1 mounted in the middle and I have just added extra shift lights as you can't really see the other ones in the middle of the dash, not really a problem with the sun it's just that they are not in your line of site.

HTH,
Rich.

cheers chaps i wantd to mount it behind the wheel but there isn't quite enough room so i was contemplating extending the dash when i make it so it has a d shape sitting above the wheel this way i will definately have enough room. All this would sit behind my aero screen so will be sheltered.

I got mine fitted in front of wheel and works fantastic. Only slight gripe is that at night with main beam on the blue light can be dazzling - easy fixed with some tape though.

Never had any bother in bright sunlight unless wearing dark shades.

If you want to see how mine is fitted take a look at the ETB advert in PPC or DT catalogue.

Mines A DD1 mounted in the middle of the dash.

When the sun comes out (rarely) I can't read the red on red at all - but they're only warnings...adds to the drama/paranoia of driving

I plan to have a look inside, see if I can replace the red plastic film with something a bit more user friendly. The green LED sections great.
