There's a plug with the alan head to the left of the trans. fill bolt. Does anyone know what that is? I opened it and there was a plunger with a ball bearing that came out. It appeared the same as the gear oil, but I didn't really have a way of filling this as I did with the 24mm bolt. I think I...

PM me if this sale doesn't go through.

Well, after extensive research & tests. The VSS wire is not accessible w/ out something called a CAN-VSS module. It allows to you to connect to the CANBUS to get a usable speed sensor reading. This module is about a $100.00 bucks, but I hear it works. I don't think I'll be spending the $100.00...

I used a tiny (I don't know what it's called) thing I used to add a little spade connector on the small fuse for radio in the passenger side fuse box. You can get these connectors at Radio Shack. I grounded the gauge on a metal frame/plate thing for the center console. Take the panel off the...

Now, I tried to connect a speed sensor wire for my turbo timer to this depopulated connector. I still was not able to pick up anything. What is the difference between signal used for audio navigation that seems to be working for people & a turbo timer signal?

good luck, I'm still trying to figure it out. Post if you find it first.

cool. Now I just gotta figure out the speed sensor wire.

Here is my update. First off, thanks to enganear for helping me w/ the needed info... For those that have the Type I timer, I was able to hook up the RPM (Tach.) wire connection to be able to use the auto timer function. The grean wire from timer will go through the firewall. I went through the...

I think I may have found some useful info. I will try it tonight & let you know.

I think your suppose to tap the solid red wire (which is the same size), not the Black/red wire. The rest sounds right.

Thanks for the how-to. I used this when I installed mine (I have the Type I). I'm still trying to figure out the speed & rpm signal wires though. Any ideas? There's suppose to be a blank VSS slot on the connecter behind the cluster that should work, but I havent's tested it yet (I'm waiting for...

A lot of people have used the ReQ w/ positive results. I don't what your situation is, but it doesn't sound right. Possibly that tweeter that buzzing is grounded somewhere. I don't know. As for the popping when you turn on the car, it's from the amp. Most amps have a delay/soft start that...

& I had no idea what either of you guys said. But, it seems like I should wish I did

In that case, (thumb) good job.
