Hi Folks!
I'm thinking of installing a fuel/trip computer, but its not like in old Granadas. It's inside the instrument panel and i want to know if there is a possibility to install?
Thank you.

The wiring and sensors are most likely inplace BUT you will need the Instrument panel with the computer read out on it and the trip metter buttons which are located on the right hand side of the steering whell on the RHD cars Getting the parts should not be too hard but as to the wiring and things working. I don't know . you may even need a different ECU . The wiring diagrams are avaialable HERE if they help.
Others with more electrical knowledge than me might be able to help more.
Good luck

The wire to look for are behind the lower dash to the left of the head lamp switch and the coin tray .. As yours is LHD you should change left to Right the switch we are refering to is shown HERE
