Yes. A switch bank on the back allows configuration of options including metric vs. US standard.

Sweet. Sorry if this was already answered way back.

Wow, i can't wait to get this! applause to you CTScott for a brilliant idea and execution!

arunto · 01-10-2010, 09:32 PM

unit looks nice....i can't wait till it comes out. would we use the current push button on the cluster to change between functions?

Yes. It will use the same push button to change modes and set the clock. Programming for the one button user interface has been one of the most difficult aspects of this, but I wanted to avoid making people drill holes for extra switches.

I am interested in how you'd incorporate it into the sedan! I'll buy.

Hi all,

New to the forum here.

CTScott - this one cool project you are undertaking. It is great enough to make me join the forum! Count me in for one of these. Thanks for your great work.

Looking good CTScott!
With these tap splices, will it be easy to put back the old unit, in case I
would sell the car?

Yes. You'd pop them off and put a small piece of tape over the nick in the insulation.

Why remove it if you sell it?

I suspect that any new owner would like the mod also.

IsLNdbOi · 01-14-2010, 01:55 AM

... and it probably wouldn't work on other cars unless you plan on getting another Yaris if you sold your current one.

After reading this thread it appears the YarGauge will not work on my 2010 3-dr manual, which has a tach on the left.

That's correct, since the clock is not a separate module, like on the tachless ones. I am trying to figure out where the YarGauge could be integrated to have the OEM look for tach equipped liftbacks and sedans.

Oh that sucks. I was totally going to buy one but didn't know the new ones came with a tach lol.

For 2010 all manual transmission LBs come with the tach. Autos still do not.

About time, but I wanted all the other cool functions too lol. Can't have everything I guess? lol

devinlamothe · 01-14-2010, 04:41 PM

Still want me to take some pics of the inside of my cluster? I have one with a tach - just tell me what you need a pic of and I can do it tonight.

I actually have one on my test bench. I don't see being able to mount it within the tach cluster without modification, so I am looking for someplace outside of the cluster. For example, one thought is to mount it in place of one of the center AC vents. I am open to suggestions.

I obviously could mount it in a small enclosure, that you can put anywhere (like the scangauge), but that diminishes its value versus products like scangauge.
