I run one in my car, but my 87 XJ is not compatible with it. Love it in may car though. I have it set to show MPG's, Water Temp, speed, and volt.

I have used them on prior vehicles, but do not have any new enough at this point to run. But are worth the $$

I have one in my XJ. I had it in my Old Tacoma as well, and LOVE it. The gauges are very nice to have true accurate numbers.

I have one that gets transferred back and forth between the XJ and the motor home.

It's a great device. It's used to monitor the transmission temperature in the MH. Too bad the XJ does not have this sensor installed.
In the XJ, I use it to monitor intake temperature, water temp, voltage and instant mileage.
Changing the readout is very simple. If you have re-geared and have not changed the speedometer gear, you can set the ScanGauge for MPH and adjust it to read the correct speed, using a GPS as a reference.
It will also check for CELs and clear the hot-soak CELs that the late-model XJs frequently have.

I was thinking about making something like this:

DO the "double"din stereo mod, and run it in that area.

I have one, mounted on my column. They keep adding codes on the website to add. Its paid for itself in checking/clearing codes already.
