I was looking at these but decided that they were far too small for a car - ok for a bike though.





Cheers,

I have the trailtech vapor, at £55 from their uk dealer they are cheap as chips, illuminate nicely and are plenty big enough!!

Only issue I have had is the shift lights and rev counter are mental!!

I connected the feed to the tacho output on my MBE ecu and most of the time it does nothing, but sometimes it reads all sorts of revs and flashes the shift lights all over the place!!

I have now fitted an old elliot tacho I had laying around and disconnected the trail tech tacho. Its still worth it for the internal and external temps, speedo and trip functions plus illumination.

on mine I drilled and tapped one of the diff output flanges and screwed in one of the magnetic bolts that trailtech supply, then mounted the reed switch on a bracket from the diff carrier.
