Went to snake road salvage and picked up a steering column for 100, And a horn and shifter knob for 5 dollars
Then went scavenging for other stuff and bought a box of bolts and stuff for 15
Pretty good day I think

Here is a short video of my OBD display with six gauges that can be displayed, customized or replaced with a bunch of other including Fuel Level.

What's your plan for mounting the factory steering column since the brackets have all been removed?

Weld some brackets in to hold steering along with mirrors, tail lights, head light bolt holder, gas tank angle iron, and etc. That’s the good thing about having one built already I can measure everything off of that one.
The car junk yard I go to has a ton of metal for a 1/4 of the regular cost .

As I understand it, the BlueDriver setup won't work as a hands-off, secondary gauge cluster.

Just making sure the folks here are aware.

I've been doing some research into this as well. Not sure it would work with a raspberry pi, but should for a tablet. You can use an app such as Tasker to run a set sequence when the tablet detects power like it's been plugged in. Have it wired to a key on fuse and when you start the car it'll run the program. Then the same when the key is off to reverse the sequence. Here's a link to how it would work. Should allow you to be mostly hands off after initial setup, depending on how long your battery will hold a charge with the tablet in airplane mode.

Starting and Stopping "Torque" Android App automatically!

I remembered reading a couple of you using Torque were having some difficulties getting Torque to automatically shut down or start and I was having the same problem so I did a little research and came up with a solution that seems to be working so far so I thought I'd share. The main problem I ha...
