Default gauges installed!! pics

i got my gauges installed. work on it until 4am sat. morning and finished them saturday. i still dont have my apexi neo installed but hopefully i will soon. (anybody know how?) well here are some pics from the install. everything went good but it just took me about 8 hours for everything. i relocated my ipod and put some velcrow down to keep it in place too. i still have to get my sensors installed and buy two more sensors but my birthday is in a month so that should be soon. until then, volt works! here are the gauges off....blacked out. --incase you are wondering i have defi volt, egt, press, and temp gauges along with the defi link display and defi link control unit. i still need to find my speed wire where i can hook up the digital speedometer. anybody know which wire that is?

here they are at night. the first picture is without the lights on and the second is with. i know why the gauges need to dim at night now because they are REALLY bright. they look good though!

2 more....of the defi link control unit II. i had to dremel out a little rectangular spot of my dash to get this to go in. i think it turned out pretty good though. and- it doesnt light up at all without the lights being turned on so whenever i drive it at night and keep it running for a while if the buttons on the control unit dont get hot, im gonna wire it up so the light stays on - just like the gauges...

ahh its just a little piece. i can get a new one for $30 if i need to. i think im going to have the bottom portion of the dash painted black so that little scratch wont be seen after that.

B11 Speedometer blue/white
and for the Apexi NEO you'll need to reference to the install layout that came with the unit to the pin outs below:
ORIGINAL: Honda-tech
OBD2a




OBD2b

Beyond that, good looking install. I like how the gauges are blacked out when off... debated going this route myself....
