My stealth wideband install
I bought and assembled my wideband kit from 14point7.com last week and finally got around to installing it. I put the display in the stock clock location and the board in the glove box. It's a little dim when in direct sunlight but other than that its perfect. Not bad for about 120 bucks invested

That must be the best location I have ever seen for a meter.
Any more pictures on how you got the display set up?

Re: My stealth wideband install (garageEF)
The wideband works great. I am going to compare it to my lm-1 when i get a chance.
The sensor was not included. The kit was 70 bucks and the sensor was 45. It has a bunch of other cool features and will datalog also.

Re: My stealth wideband install (garageEF)
Just some basic soldering. This was my first time building anything like this but it was basic enough that even a beginner like me pulled it off. I was a little confused on how to get it to communicate with my PC but the seller walked me through it and it was actually really easy.

Great job!
I was in the process of doing the same thing with the display then I saw this post. You beat me to it!
Quick question for you.. I don't see the ribbon cable coming off the controller to the display. How are you interfacing the display with the controller? Are you using one of the analog outputs?
Cheers!

Re: (Bluelight)
I reverse mounted the connector and routed it through the back side of the glovebox. There is directions on how to do it on their site.
Here u go,

Re: (Charlie Moua)
i feel like a retard for asking this question, but can i use JAW if my o2 is disabled? i wasnt sure if i still had to run it through the ECU or if it was like its own controller. thanks and be gentle. hahaha
