It's all good. The Faux leather is for the mold over foam B. The turn signal cut out is modeled from the stock green covers. I'm open to alternate suggestions in this matter, though I do not like the thought of just having single LED's for indicators. And yes, I'm still using the center warning cluster.

Look what I found:

Those should make things easier. Just have to find a place that sells 'em.

Nice! Those will make things much simpler.

vex 03-03-2011 10:50 PM

But I can't find anyone who sells 'em. :/

So this might be a silly question: Will I still need to deal with the "Shift Up" light from the stock dash, or will it be disabled when I switch to the standalone? My gut says it will be disabled, but I'd rather make sure than guess (and I'm feeling kind of lazy).

Unless you create an output from the standalone to be a shift up light, its not going to exist. In fact, that must be an S4 thing, cause my S5 doesn't have one that i know of, just the buzzer

unless I'm much mistaken the Digi dash will have shift and warning lights built in and used by the ECU automatically. I'm just concerned that I may have a live wire back there causing havoc whenever I get into the higher RPM band.

tweiss3 03-04-2011 11:11 AM

why would you have a loose wire? Aren't you rebuilding the harness? If you have to, tape it off.

vex 03-04-2011 11:18 AM

I think we're missing each other here. There's a plethora of wires coming into the stock dash. Among which include the Brights indication, Blinkers, and the Shift up light. Rather than remove the entire dash unit I was planning on just pulling the wires that I need (blinkers and brights indication). My question however is does the stock setup pull the voltage for the shift up from the stock ECU or is it pulling it from a secondary computer?

tweiss3 03-04-2011 11:21 AM

ooooooohhhh, i thought you were doing a TTT and pulling the whole harness. let me grab the wiring diagram here in a minute and check it out for you

tweiss3 03-04-2011 11:22 AM

what year is yours?

vex 03-04-2011 11:27 AM

S4:86-87.5

tweiss3 03-04-2011 11:39 AM

On the 88 wire diagram i see, its just looped in with the speed sensor/tack

vex 03-04-2011 01:24 PM

Okay, cool.

I've been thinking of the lenses and it might be pretty cool to use a light bar or elongated LED's if I can't source a proper arrow lens (I sent out a few emails, waiting to hear back). Thoughts?

I'm trying to avoid the standard circular LED's.

tweiss3 03-04-2011 01:39 PM

i've got nothin for ya, sorry

I am searching us suppliers at the moment but they all have millions of LEDs

Might try these guys http://www.kingbright-europe.de/index_fr.htm

^^ These guys have a Dot matrix you could light in an arrow in any color for that race look..
