Hi,
I have installed my innovate mtx-d boost gauge. Powers fine and everything but it always reads 40.8 any ideas what I did wrong? Thanks.

yeah i haven't connected it with the headlights fuse so it dims when i use it at night. I'll have a look at night if its too bright then i'll use that if not then i won't bother.

I can't see an option for RHD? You did get RHD right?

yeah mine's RHD, when you get shipping to AUS, its RHD. Just confirm it with the maker before you buy.
