Not bad man, keep em coming! Is this just a little handheld?? Looks like you are trying to drive and run the camera at the same time, is it small enough you can mount it somewhere? Maybe some passenger seat runs?

I think you have room for one more gauge on the right side of the instrument cluster! I love gauges!

You know what is bad my car is mucked up it actualy cold starts just like that any starts a little faster with less hesitation when you turn the key but starting it after it has ran and is warm it will crank for 5-6 seconds or longer and somtimes won't even start without going under the hood and pulling the fuse for the flooding method and then it will start again I don't get it. Do most people have trouble cold starting there cars?

Yo,


I know you can type one handed...why can't you drive one handed?!

*wink*

Just kidding!! It was too obvious not to comment on.

Check out www.conecam.com...they've got some pretty spiffy mounts.

hey scott i was just looking through your site... why didnt you mount the FMIC further up on the car? (like right inside the front bumper like everybody else does) just wanting to be creative? i'd think mounting it farther up would also help with your oil and water temps that you're watching so closely.
