Just watch him switch to the indigo gauges when we get them! LOL I'm just not a fan of white gauges, you see all the message icons on it.

Interesting. For some reason I thought the white gauges would be blindingly white at night. This looks good.

Yeah, concerning the TCS, I looked up the Helm manual and it seems like the bulb for the TCS is off to one side of where the VSA window is. Have you tried turning off the TCS and seeing where the light is?

VSC light is off to the right of where the TCS light is, so when TCS light is on, you can't see it.

who really cares about the TCS light anyway if TCS kicks in, you're going to hear it anyway and if you peel out, you know it's off- right?

Did you have to re-calibrate the gauges at all? Hope your gauges aren't mis-reading. How long did the install take you?

no re-calibration.

install took maybe an hour total... I had help from my friend and we went really slow because I didn't want to cause any damage to my baby.
