I just wanted to update this How-To with some info about the Remote LED Display that's an option for this kit. This item is used so you can monitor what the Pressure Controller is doing from the cab of the vehicle. It comes with these items...




As you can see the LED Display is basically a miniature version of the controller. And the wire that comes with it is 6 pin telephone wire. The wire proved to be too short for running from the rear of the bed to the cab (by about 4 feet) so I purchased a 25 foot piece from Radio Shack. It was a little too long, but I just coiled up the excess and tie-wrapped it under the dash.


First I covered the wire with black split loom and put some painters tape on the end to protect it during routing.


I ran the wire from the controller mounted in the bed down through the hole for the nitrous feed line and the other wires. From there I routed to along the drivers side frame rail following the same path as the nitrous feed line and the wires for the bottle opener and the F&I. I then needed to find a spot to enter the cab and I found one in a rubber grommet just below where my feet go. So I pulled the grommet out and cut a small hole in it to squeeze the wire and loom through for a good seal.




Then I routed it up into the cab and under the carpet. From there I routed it behind the drivers side kick-panel and behind the dash...




Then I ran the wire out underneath the steering wheel and coiled the excess and secured it under the dash. I used some velcro to secure the display, but I may go back later and use screws.




That's it. It works like a charm. The location is temporary and I'm gonna clean it up a little very soon.
