        Exactly. And you'll be noticing it change, maybe over a few days and you can say "Hey I think my Battery(or Alt) is going bad - I'll keep an eye on that."

        Then you can change the battery or alt before it leaves you stranded. OR, when you do go to start the car, and it won't turn over - you already know what part to replace.

        If you don't have the gauge, and the car won't turn over, you don't know what to replace. It could be either.

        With this - you know. Kinda nice? No?

                            Got a bit more done. Still a ways to go.

                            After much searching and special ordering I finally found some LED displays that will fit - not only into the button - in to all sorts of places. (gauge cluster, vents, ect..) The circuity that is needed to drive them is of course more complex. So they will be priced accordingly. Don't expect them to be cheap.

                            Images removed for now - updates soon.

                            These guy are bright.


                            Yea, they are kinda cool.


                            Soldering them is slow suicide. There are 10 pins on something smaller than a tick-tack.


                            I need to find a better way to do this.



                            Yep, plenty bright.


                            What a finished display will look like. The text height is exactly the same as your OBC display. very readable at a glance.

                                                Yea, but where do you plan on relocating your hazard button to? I'm thinking of moving mine to the worthless window lock out switch. If it will fit depth wise.
