As an after thought, does the guardian have an on/off and do I have to remove any dash components to get the wire through the firewall?

Thanks clubgreenie, will check it out

Just read the ebay stuff, button looks like a setting button plus it temp live overides the alarm. Looks like the only wire to pass into the engine bay is the sensor wire. Shouldn't be an issue. You'll need a large enough hole for the wiring to pass through the dash top but the old radio, if I understand correctly it's fitted to the dash top? Lower the panel under the steering column and pass the wireacross to where the grommets pass on the right.

And forget what I posted above about a scangauge, won't plug into the D1.

Scanguage?

Thanks again, I just want to have it clear in my head before I start and stuff it up. Lol

The instructions say to power it from the ignition cable but I was planning to take it from the existing old am cb radio power.

I'd take it from a ign switched source else it's on all the time. Though it may require constant power for setting memory. Bench test first.

I just found a power supply under the stearing wheel that when off when the ignition was off.. mine is attached to the cd player I assume as when tahts off so is my engine guardian..

the push button is a live override.. so if your doing some 4wdriving and the temp is above 90, which you expect.. push the button and it will give you another 5 degrees..

I've mounted mine on the roof console just above rear vision mirror i'm about to go for a drive so I'll take a photo and post it when I return

Hey Fev

Re front bars, there are often D1 front bars for sale on Ebay and they usually go for cheap compared to new prices.

cheers,

Thanks Terry, I have an official bull bar but was thinking of an after market bumper and bar.
