05 VZ SS Binnacles install

[Matty-346]

Hey guys I hav an 05 VZ SS ute and want to install the binnacles (twin gauges), Probably a stupid question but will i need the optional loom to install it (or would i have one already it) and has anyone else had any issues installing one before?

Cheers

You will need the loom, and the oil fitting adaptor to connect the oil pressure sender into.

Sorry to dig up old thread, but you can just run new wiring yeah?

I put some in my vy and did all the wiring myself. It's not really that hard to do as most gauges you buy come with all the instructions you need to do the job.

do you have to have climate control to have these work properly or...? as ive seen somewhere in my travels through the forums that you need to have a car with climate control. i think they looks sweet so im really keen to get one fitted to my car but want to know if it will work first.

good question about the climate control. Id like to know how you go.

you just need to make sure you have the correct gauge housing, thats all!

The spot they sit up top the dash is a different size and slightly different shape for cars with Climate Control to without climate control, thats all the difference is!
