    Default Ambient temp sensor

    Hey guys.. My ambient sensor I'm pretty confident has been moved. I don't know where they originally sit or what they look like. When I had panel work I'm pretty sure it'd been moved. Can anyone shed some light?

    Vp Calais relevant by the way

    The reason I say this, is last night on the road it was reading 25 degrees.. Which was not the case as it was quite chilly lol

    Nice pic, can always trust you to have stuff on hand ^_^

    Yes trent, it goes between the radiator and condensor, but you can always mount it with cable ties in front of the condensor if you feel so inclined
