3800 In dash ICCU

[MuffHugger]

My goal was to have an in dash ICCU that utilized the stock buttons and retain traction control. There was a lot of fabrication involved, but worked out in the end. I have D (raregmfan on clubgp), bikrboy, and Kevin (he works at the shop with me) to thank for all their help. So here are the progress to finished product pics.

All the pieces

The ICCU buttons glued/siliconed over the (removed) stock buttons.

Stock buttons in place

All mocked up

Had to notch the stock housing to get the wires through.

All assembled

Finally installed

Matt (bikrboy) helped me solder and Mike (14secsomeday) helped me get the wires through to the engine compartment. Matt and I got everything hooked up, but the screen was not red as advertised. It was blue w/ white letters. The car also ran like shit with all the wires hooked up. I need to reset all the settings and start all over.

cool. looks good! but how you gonna know your mpg's??

my mpg was all messed up because of my 60 pounders. The only thing I miss is the performance shift status. Thankfully, there is a light on the top left corner of my instrument panel.

 

[Bob Kazamakis]

i had my performance shift tables in the regular tables. i didnt like the slow shifts without it.

How will you know when your trunk is accidentally open??

I like having the power to switch between the two.

I never noticed it either way.

 

[Bob Kazamakis]

the trunk shoudl still do the ding thing where it takes you like 10 minutes to figure out what the fuck it is.

oh and why switch between the two? i never showed any mpg change; the slow shifts were annoying.

 

[Fish]

Yeah, I always hit the trunk button on accident then would proceed to hit a bump and hear the ding ding ding. Drove me up a fucking wall.

 

[bikrboy128]

[Fish]

i guess he wanted red, but got blue instead..

 

[Bob Kazamakis]

hmmmm i would have though looking at the screen you could tell it was blue....

looks like your changing all the other lights to blue.

 

[bikrboy128]

Rare. Sell for more and buy a red.

I refuse to believe it is blue. I'll sell the whole thing for $350 shipped if my eyes trick me into thinking it is blue.

 

[Bob Kazamakis]

have you actually used it yet? i'm confused.

 

[bikrboy128]

we powered it up last night, the screen is definitely blue with white letters.
