I would love an analog tach dial for rpm on my future 7sp bronco. No need for an analog disk spedo. Wish they would have reversed the analog/ digital dials for Manual transmission takers

If I was a serious off-road enthusiast, I would look at oil pressure, temp etc. No idea where they would go.

I use a Bluetooth OBD2 dongle (Forscan compatible) to display data on my iPad/phone in real time. Plenty of apps to choose from to display the data. Lots of pretty gauges etc. Best part is no modification to the vehicle.

Has anyone thought about extra gauges, like oil pressure, vacuum...that can be added on or in dash area or side pillar location?
Ooh that'd be cool.

Why cant I gut the a-pillar airbags and put gauges there like a old skool tuner?

Hell, whats stopping me from shedding weight with removing the excessive airbags? My car, I didnt want them like I never wanted A.S.S.

HI, would love to learn more about your setup. Is there a certain brand/app that is better than others? Also, what about the hardware to the OBD2. I already have Forescan cable to recode but I dont think that would work with this (unless you like having a laptop hooked up all the time :)). Thanks

I use the wired version when making FORScan changes, but use the OBDLink MX+ on a daily basis to display data.

Why tho? All that stuff is already on the instrument panel with the exception of maybe oil pressure. You could probably install a boost cow for fun but PSI is already on the panel.
