Default Touchscreen digital dashboard.

Check this out.

It will give you a digital dashboard, it reads data from the ECM over the ODBII port to a flatscreen.

How cool is this?

I think it was less than $700 for the unit without the touch screen.

You guys should look into carputers if you are considering spending $700 for that with no screen. For around the same amount of money you can build something that'll play/store all your music, show virtual gauges, have navigation, wifi, tune with the PC based tuner of your choice, etc. There is a wealth of knowledge over at mp3car.com

Go to mp3car.com. This idea has been around a long time for a lot cheaper if you do it yourself

Ya i think its tough to beat a carputer setup with hptuners because not only can you view your cars real time gauges and datalog you can also tune. I imagine you can do it all for a similar price as well. Somebody on here had that type of setup on his lsx caterham roadster.
