Project BMW 325is Part 7: VDO gauge console from BMP Design
|
BMP suggests drawing power for the gauge console from a wire at the headlight switch. Use the wiring diagrams in your Bentley manual to determine which ones are "Hot in RUN and START." I ran the wire to the gauges between this smooth, metal panel and its soft, padded cover, taping it to make sure it didn't move to a sharp edge. At first, it seems every possible place to snake a wire from the gauge area out to the side is already full of wires, but I was able to feed a piece of coat hanger wire in from the area shown here and tape the power wire to its end. Be careful not to damage existing wires; almost no force is required in the right place. View Related Article
