    13 button retro fit

    Im planning on swapping my dash and I have been trying to source a 13 button OBC with the harness and the turn signal stalk.

    Haven't been able to find one.
    Can this be added later or does the dash have to be removed to add the harness.

    you can add the turn stalk later, it's easy to swap out. you really don't even need it, it just cycles through the display. I think I used mine twice when I first put it in but I find it more distracting than just pressing the button on the OBC.

      can you also add the wiring that goes from the cluster to the obc with the dash in place?

        yes you have to pull the cluster though. and the OBC won't work without being plugged into the cluster, that's where it gets it's data from.

            installing the wiring harness for the OBC is dead easy. the only thing that gave a small issue is where it goes over the ductwork on the extreme drivers side. other than that, it was a 1 hr install.
