Lightbulb Trip meter upgrade
Hello I have a base model 850 with a only a clock on display on my cluster. I want to install a trip meter. Do I need any other hardware or sensors aside from the display, switch, and harness? Thank you

ScanGauge is really helpful if you cannot use OEM parts on your model.

I can improve 3 MPG by watch out the gauge. You can save more if your foot is harder then mine :-)

It came from a 97 850 turbo. I have a 96 non turbo. I don't know if this detail is important-mine does not have a sunroof lol! I can post a pic if that helps
