    active tach/speedo idea...help me with this

    totally off topic but I do there are two ways too speed. The stupid way and the "minimize the chance of getting caught" way. I speed and has been a bit over 5 years since I last got "caught". I usually keep it under 10 mph over the limit as most cops don't care. Go 11-15 and you are royal...

    active tach/speedo idea...help me with this

    I forgot to mention. The K.I.S.S was not directed at anyone especially you. I should have prefaced it with, "I believe in the K.I.S.S. prinicple". for me i don't care.. this is way to much work already. Programming, Dynamic LCD/OLED.. meh :) For display purposes, I would get...

    active tach/speedo idea...help me with this

    not as easy as it sounds one. how exactly do you tell the display which gear you are in (i know the answer but I want to know if YOU know the answer)? Without an answer to that you are dead in the water.

    owning a 15yo car has made me cheap

    Persoanlly I agree with figit90 no aftermarket seats comes close to the comfyness of the stockers. Do they weigh alot? sure but man I can tell you without a doubt. 1500 miles over three day, one day nearly 20 hours. No hurt anywhere. :)

    window nets

    no most people remove the aforementioned item in a futile attempt to save weight. The MKIII is heavy, will always be heavy no matter what.You can gut the MKIII it still will be heavy.
