Outside Temp Thermistor

Post by Gary406 »

i've just bought a D8 temp display unit. the plug and wires are all there behind were it fits..

i want to get outside temp thermistor so i can retro fit it... once the display arrives .. it was only 8 quid so worth a try

calling omega :cheesy: does your D8s have the temp display , next to the hazard light switch ..

if so can i buy the thermistor off the car .... its located inside the passangers side wing mirror ...

does your probe stick out the bottom of the wing mirror ?
i've put im in place and it kinda sticks out . meaning wind blast wont make a difference .

so i have a plan to put it under the subframe or possibly on top of the subframe

so i dont have to run wires into the wing mirror :shock:
