Interest Thread

Overview
Since posted thread EOI regarding new product available for our vehicles there was big interest expressed in purchasing such gizzmo toy.
To make sure this product will work in our VR4's I did test one in different settings and cars. Tests revealed few issues we may experience whilst fitting UTCOM. All those issues were sorted and results were posted in EOI thread. Also, there is described mini DIY guideline how to fit UTCOM display in stock clock bay area.
Once tested and proved working I'm happy to open a GB thread for anyone interested in purchase this not expensive but fully packed with interesting features gizzmo toy.
