Hi fellas'

I just bought an SDR and am going to track it... So the dash is a bit of a waste for me as I only wanna see Taco or shift light.
I was thinking of putting it all on my 06 SD and then putting the Taco on (ala Jody) but am not sure how to rig it so I still get the error codes (flashing LED)
If anyone is good with electrickery could you let me know?
Failing that, I was thinking of a race dash, but have never used one and would throw it again to you guys for suggestions.
I've browsed a few but nothing counts like real world experience.
I was going to run a racechrono GPS timer and data logger off the Tuneecu OBDII cable (not sure if it'll work but I've a feeling it will)

I looked into race style dash setups when i was rebuilding the bike.

Some of them did look pretty good. But they seem generic for fitment and alot have to cut into coolant hoses to add their temp sensors etc. You do seem to get some nice looking bit of kit for around £200 though. With a bit of work and an old battle mask it would be really trick.

An easy option would be a simple battle mask with tacho and led's for Neutral, Oil, an FI lamps.

I was thinking the same about the LED's

What were the brands of Dash you were looking at just for comparison?
