Sorry to side track you, do you have a part # for those H&R's? For some reason I never see the 'super sports' for sale anywhere.

Did you get this from the guy in France? How was the install?

I ordered one several years ago and plan to install it with my 2.7i engine swap.

Yes from France via ebay, install was doable but painful, tight place to work

I had to extend the wiring to the rear diff temp sensor, as it wasn't quite long enough for me and how i routed it, that was easy enough, and its the easiest sensor to route

A couple of the temp sensors broke, cheap chinese knock offs, so i replaced them with Bosch

For the oil pressure and temp sensors you'll need an adapter to connect to your factory oil dummy light sensor
and the connecting clips on the wiring supplied to the back of the gauge pod are quite weak, chinese again, i bought some spares and had to replace a couple
Fishing the wires through the engine fire wall and routing them up through the dash was a pain, and youll have to drill some holes in the plastic trim behind the vent gauges to get the wires up

Instructions are a bit "light" and there's a bit of intuition and guess work involved
