ROTTI'S VAN - BOOHAG

Get some bigger wheels. 15" fill up the gap nicely.

My vote would be for bigger tyres/rims. will fill the gap nicely & added advantage of dropping those revs when travelling.

If you go bigger tyres / rims, dont forget to re-calobrate your speedo.

Fitted an aftermarket indicator stalk / hazard switch, swapped it over to the other side of the column(my other car's a BMW, pain the ar5e going from one car to the next!!)
plastic welded the factory indicator hole on the shroud, upgraded to led, so did the led flasher unit. because nothing else worked on the dash, its all going.....VDO gauges going in.....
list gets longer!

[Rotti]

converting the gauge pod to a stand alone gauge housing. plastic welded the whole unit together & will have a removable aluminium front panel for the gauges. VDO 52mm 'cockpit' gauges & a 'speedhut' 4" GPS speedo...should work out ok...

thinking of Chrysler voyager seats in the front of the cf, has anyone fitted up a pair? Been slow on boohag the last week or two, had to get some real work done...bit of a bigger job now, complete re-wire etc....

Hi Rotti
Getting my spedo sorted has been quite interesting, after months of looking at all the options, I decided on a full digital unit from the states, but just before I hit the purchase button I checked with some people I know in the rod scene and they said just make sure its ADR approved, the unit I wanted wasn't, so back to the drawing board, not sure if this applies to you but I thought its worth mentioning, the unit I was going to buy was over $700, found  a different one in Australia for $250, and is ADR approved

Cheers

Hi taggraphx,
thanks for the info....I'm keen on speedhut GPS speedo,

vdo cockpit gauges for the rest.....I thought this speedo may be ok because of the odometer, & I can have it factory set to my current reading. I will haveto find out before forking out the coin but!..cheers for that

I'm also looking at the sheedhut gauges, http://www.speedhut.com/customizer.i?clid=1185178 , if you do go for them buy them off their website, is a bit cheaper speedhut.com and they will customize your gauges for about $15 us, am getting kph and a red mark put at 50kph and a couple of other small changes.
I just have to check with the engineer that a GPS speedo is allowed

[Rotti]

tempted to put the 400klm one in ...just in case...
