    Default VR/VS Trip Computer

    Hey guys,

    Just converted to level 3 cluster and have a trip computer as well
    But just wondering the trip computer is meant to go where the coin tray is correct? Because the trip computer is bigger so does anyone have some fitting instructions? I'm guessing I have to drill through it at the back or something.

    Cheers.

    it sits in the dash to the left of your cluster... some vr's dont have trip computer so you would need to try and swap the plastic console out for a vs one, or cut your own hole out.

    What The1 said. It wouldn't be too hard to figure out which wires go where, and create your own custom setup with buttons from an electronics store, but drilling out out or getting a VS surround would certainly be the easiest option.
