expensive if you ask me, i don't even know what they look like.

Otherwise, talk to speedhut they do some custom work, see what they can do for you, although you might have to send your gauges to the states for them to use.

SPEAKING of security systems, anyone ever figure out how to disable the honking of the horn when u activate a feature on the oem factory system (without disconnecting the horn and running a new switch for the horn...)

i hate the honking. and i upgraded my horn to something more american cus the tink of the old horn wasn't taken seriously in traffic

the, the oem security system is a real joke. it wouldn't stop anyone, it just honks the horn a bunch of times and the horn is so crappy u couldn't hear it 5 cars away in a parking lot.

every other oem system i've had beats this one down hard.
