Just ordered a kit. These are what the 75/ZT has been waiting for!

Had an email from Hans at 17:13 on Monday stating that "The parcel is in the mail".

The parcel arrived in C.Scotland in the post this a.m. Less than 2 days, magic...
The Temp. Gauge appears to be very professionally made and from what I read, it will do exactly what I bought it to do.
I shall be fitting it in to the blank panel on the Symphony radio where I should be able to see it with only a sideways glance. So together with the Gerry Tee I will feel 'much safer' for our 2000km trip to Central Portugal with regard to my waterworks...
Cheers, Martin

No I didn't have to make a wedge.

I have just had a look and there is a tiny gap at the bottom of the front bezel.

Just a thought about fitting the display in the spare cup holder.

I'm rather tall and have my seat right back so I can see the display, if you sit forward then you might have a problem, although the unit is fitted with an overtemp alarm it is nice to see your engine temperature at a glance.

Ah, the angle isn't as large as it looks in some photos. This looks a nice fit. I think I'll put mine in there. Thanks for the details.
