Or just the PCB? I have approached Bob and he has none available.

Thanks

Mine is complete and listed in the marketplace or send a pm…

No, still very much interested, but life gets in the way, and this display yet to pop up at the top of the list. Hopefully soon!!
Thanks

Not sure if I am allowed to mention it here, but I have one of Cabrio Bob's auxilliary display units for sale. It's in perfect condition, and complete with the OBDII dongle. If anyone is interested, please PM me.

My classified ad is here:

I'm surprised nobody wants to buy my complete ADU, which I no longer need after (reluctantly) selling my car. I guess this thread has died now. The ADU is still listed in the classifieds, just in case.

Hang in there and bump the ad once a month. Someone will pick it up. It's a great tool.

I purchased one on the forum, best thing since sliced bread monitors temp/volts live. No longer worrying about overheating reading, voltage reading is a plus. Cheaper than engine-rebuilt.

Thanks Sean. I bumped it and have had an enquiry from Estonia! You are right - keeping an eye on water temperature and battery gives great peace of mind.

Default Another way…

I purchased a Veepeak OBDCheck BLE+ Bluetooth 4.0 OBD II Scanner Wireless Car Diagnostic Scan Tool on Amazon and downloaded OBDFusion from the App Store and created a Temperature and Voltage gauge dashboard which runs on my iPhone. It rests nicely in front of the ashtray door and is easily readable.

This is a screenshot of the dual gauge dashboard in action.

That's how I used to do it too until Bob came up with his much more elegant solution. All the instructions are on his Web site so although he's not making any more, it is still possible to make the unit oneself. Highly recommended and worth the effort and modest cost.

Is Bob still selling kits or parts? I was under the impression that he'd stopped doing that a couple of years ago.
Since I'm not soldering shy, I'd love to give that a try too!

He doesn't sell them anymore. PM me. I have one I'm going to remove from my car.
