Not too difficult really, just a little fiddly. The worst bit was actually removing the heater vent. I bought the £230 gauge which comes as a complete unit and just slots back in place of the original heater vent. No need to mess about cutting and gluing the original vent that way.

How usable do you find the display when driving around?  Just looks like it might be a bit small to me.

That was originally a concern of mine as the screen only measures 42x32mm, but surprisingly i have found it perfectly fine. No worse than your average 52mm pod mounted gauge really.  :happy2:
