• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

    12 volt plug

    I used the positive side for the lights in the fuel gauge to energize the relay for the 12volt outlet. I then connected the outlet to the battery with an inline fuse. I replaced the temp gauge with an IPOD jack connected back to the trunk with a plug on it. This way I can plug in my IPHONE...
