    Just the UltraGauge mounting bracket, a large binder clip, and some random hardware that I found at Lowes to fit between the mount and the back of the unit. I used small piece of vinyl that I cut from an old grill cover so it doesn't scratch up the instrument panel. It does block my view of the cruise light and turn signals, but just lean up a bit and have full view of the lights and odometer. :cool:

    is the sale still going on? will your ultra guage tell you your average mpg or do you always gota add your miles and do the calculation after calibration. Once its calibrated willi be able to simply go to avrg mpg?

    Got mine delivered and installed on monday, been enjoying it. Anybody else notice that the mph gauge takes about 2 seconds to read zero after you completely stop?

    You may have it set up to update every 2 seconds. I believe that is something you can change.

    Update: Im loving mine so far!! Right now I have AvgMPG, engine temp, intake air temp, Torque, RPM, and something else I forgot. Ill keep these for a couple days and then I will change it. Trying to find the best for me.

    Thats one of the reasons I dont like the MPG calculations. I dont want to know how bad it is, I would rather just fill it up when it needs it. ahaha

    I use the UG in commuter so it's a great tool for keeping track of wether or not aerodynamic mods are helping :cool:

    I'm thinking either right here (except it'll be on my 1st Gen steering wheel):

    or right here, again (it'll be on my 1st Gen steering wheel):

    I got the horizontal mount so we'll see how well that'll work out with what I'm going for.



    What about you Colt?
