Nice!.. I want a DASH unit now instead of my hand controller

Does the MT series hand controller work with the LT8?? In the one pic you have the LT8 plugged into the MT8 (4 line) hand controller...

How did you get the power to the ECU's without having them installed?

The GB hand controllers are, in fact, 4 line units. I've tested David Girod's, and it can store maps and everything. Very nice!

The Dash units are very cool, and would be great on-track. The letters are really big (at the cost of resolution), and the tach counter is nifty as all hell!

Both light up really nicely, with the dash unit a bit brighter. The four lights up top are BRIGHT. There is a dongle that's necessary in order to use the laptop software with the units. I haven't taken mine apart yet to see how it works.

Oh, and getting it turned on without it being in a car? That's my secret I've only hooked up and tested mine, tho - if something breaks, I don't want to be liable!

I'm taping the stuff up now, and I'll be shipping out what I can in a little bit.

In the end, the buyers got 10% off the cost of the units, and saved a bundle on shipping ($20 each freight from Aus). Not too shabby!

Sent you a PM, i'm guessing you had to sign? If so, I may have to visit the PO and pick it up there...

Nope, didnt have to sign. I used the 2 day shipping though (Priority Mail), but I doubt it makes a difference. Maybe Brandon knows for sure.

Nope, nobody should have to sign for anything - all was sent "ground" USPS (whatever it's called).
