I recently made a trip to the DY and found some electronics to integrate into my interior.


Mod #1 is pretty simple. I snagged another sunroof button and mounted it in my console coin tray.
I also still have the factory switch on the panel.

The 2 others were a little more entailed installs.


Mod #2 is a homelink2 module. It's the rolling code version.

Mod #3 is a digital compass with outside thermometer. Definately a tough modification but well worth the results.

To give you an idea of where the display and electronics came from here's a pic of it in it's factory install.

Looking good mate. I would imagine it being a lot of work for the outside temperature readount?

The hardest part was seperating the display from the board and mounting it where I did. The temp senosr is mounted in front of the radiator and gets an accurate reading. The only thing I haven't hooked up yet is the dimmer and speed sensor wire. I need to find and ECU pinout diagram to figure out which wire is the speed sensor.
