This is the view from the driver's seat. I can see it fine through the steering wheel, I don't have to dip my head or anything. It'd be nice to have it more in my field of view without taking my eyes so far off the road, but I couldn't find an area up high I was happy with. And that area I have it in already has a cluttered look with the brake controller stuff, might as well localize the clutter.

There is a lot of reading on the subject, with a description of the install, but did not come accross many pictures.





Let's see some more pics...http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Approve.gif

theres two other current threads about 3-4 down from this on the exact same topic with pics.

Also, Mic, what are you driving, as mountings options vary a little by year.

I am driving a 2001 Silverado, I don't think the O/H will be a prime spot to view the screen. But I could be wrong.


Just trying to drum up some additional input from others.





I already have gauges on the A-pillar...so that may be too cluttered..

Agreed on the O/H. I got mine hooked up today - it's easy to view clearly, but it's well out of the way of clear vision (you have to make a point of turning your head to look at it. I guess if/when I'm concerned about temps, etc, I will do so, but otherwise I'm not too concerned about it. gsxr's position is where I had it previously, and it's very visable/convenient.

I recived these pictures from a fellow that is on the Edge products forums.

My dislike of that placement is it's a clear signal to anyone walking by your truck that there's something inside worth taking. Mind you I live in a suburb of Detroit, so I have to consider these things... http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Cry.gif Tinted windows would make that viable I suppose.

Ok here's where I put mine. I got this from Advanced Turbo Systems. It is for 2003 and it's new, it looks great and fits perfectly. Call Deanna and she will set you up with one.

Only one thing pops up in my mind when I look at that...SWEET!!

PULNPWR - that mount is SICK! I will definately be going that route if I decide to get the Attitude. The mounting question is one of the main things that was making me hesitate, but that looks factory!

Nice, very nice. What do the two switches on the right do?

Very nice!!! http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Clap.gif

schwing!

I just talked to Deanna....http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Big Smile.gif


It comes with either the two switches to mount what ever you'd like up there, or plain without switches. I ordered one without the switches which she says are out of stock right now, but expected shortly.


Oh, they're $45.00, I don't know if the one with switches costs more or not, forgot to ask.


Thanks PULNPWR....http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Clap.gifEdited by: Zeeb

Don't know if ATS had them made, or just knows where to get them, but mine's on order.....

No that is one of the baddest looking systems i have ever seen, after seing that, i am now going to buya attitude with the juice. Awesome, just awesome. thanks for the pics.http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Clap.gif

I wonder if they'll offer something for the '01 - that's clean enough for me to dump what I did...

Mjollnir: What do the two switches on the right do.


Nothing now, maybe NOS later on !!!!

Yee ha! Rock and roll, baby!

You oughta just label them for now:

"missile launcher" and "ejector seat"

And when you get NOS:

"pucker mode" and "poopy pants"

That looks sweet, except I need/use that pocket for my smokes!http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Cry.gif I guess I'll have to quit smoking...

GREAT looking install!http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Clap.gif


One question is the wire of the Attitude long enough to reach the Juice box when it is installed up top? Also one more question....can you see the diplay ok from the drivers seat?


Thanks

Can it be removed easily when taking truck in for service? That install is killer!

Until the new Attitude units come w/ a 9' lead (not sure when/if already available), you need a 3' extension for the 6' lead.


I have mine mounted up there in my '01 (see pics in a diff thread), and you can read them easily, but it's not in the field of vision: meaning that your eyes need to refocus, and it's more of a turn of the head than normal. That's good and bad - you don't necessarily watch it as often as you might normal guages (but how often do people even look at their oil pressure?), but if you're pulling up a hill, etc, it's stille asy to keep an eye on. The plus is it's stock looking, out of the way, and not a constant distraction as digital guages can be difficult to watch frequently (I had it on my dash before, and it was a little annoying).

Dmax affair:

Yes, it just snaps in.. but it is a tight fit....

Thank you for the info...I am trying to get as much info as possible. Actually I am always watching my guages....it is kinda in my line of work.http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Big Smile.gif I really liked my A-pillar guages...but I really like the way this set up looks.http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Clap.gif

I mounted mine just above the stereo on the dash. Close to my line of sight yet unobtrusive. I used a little peice of aluminum, like apeice of a soda can and bent it over the dash bezel then used double sticky tape to keep it in place, very solid. Cost $0.

I just called up ATS as well and ordered the snap-in with buttons. It is the same price as without the buttons. $45.00 plus shipping. Guess I won't worry about the gauges as I am just going to go the Juice and Attitude route.
