Where To Put Boost Gauge In A Fg And Fg Mk2

[freeze_dk]

Mine is a Blackberry Torch with full screen. But I'm more interested in having it on my screen in the dash in my FG2.

Can anyone tell me what I have to do to make that work ?

yeah its orange. The interior description says it has "ASL Interface and Kiwi wifi for factory screen. (boost, navigation etc)." So the ASL interface is the screen upgrade and the 'kiwi wifi' is a wireless device that plugs into the OBDII of the car. Then you need an I Phone App called 'Rev' which gives you speed, fuel usage, RPM etc. Sites below;

not sure if blackberry has the rev app or not. not even sure android has it or not

Android has torque, better than rev. Not sure about on a blackberry though

So who is going to write a step by step guide for the gauges on the ICC.

Does it go like this.

1. Install video input leads for ICC. ASL do their kit for around $300

2. Install OBD2 bluetooth/wifi dongle (what brand/where to buy???) in port.

3. Need smartphone to pick up OBD signals via bluetooth.

4. Need to install app on smartphone to display OBD data (which app/where to buy)

5. Need video out lead on smartphone to output to video in on screen.

Anything else, anything wrong???????

Don't get the ODB2 dongle. Apparently its slow. Better to get the cable and connect the phone straight to the odb port.

I read somewhere that those aftermarket centre holders for the FG obstruct your view. They do look nice and neat though!

The pillar is the best spot. You want to have it eye level. The pod holder is ugly though...

No obstruction at all with the triple pod Julz, can still see the bonnet over them easily

[Rancidpunx]

Anyone who has said they obstruct your view in FG1s is an idiot

As you can see my GPS sits higher and its positioned as far down as it will go. The bulge in the bonnet sits higher when your seated.

The FG2 with 8" touch screen has a redesigned top hat so the current pods available from ASL and SS will not fit.

I'm getting the set up as above.

It won't obstruct the view on my FGII.
