Awesome idea. I just bought the Quaovator kit and wasn't sure where I was going to install the temp gauge as I already have the Turf Mode switch and am adding the Reverse Override and Worklight Switch. The would leave me no good location for the Temp Gauge. A search of the forum and viola! A great idea.

Anybody else mount the temp guage in other locations?

 

I will have to look into how you did that, I would like to get a temp gauge also and couldn't think of a good place to put it. Thanks Koerbs you are my hero...

 

What's a "Turf Mode Switch??

Rear dif unlocker on X2s.

 

The 1x4 feature on the x-2's, allows you to turn on grass or turf without tearing up the grass or turf. It is not a feature that can be added, not without some sweat and bucks.

 

Koerbs - a little tricky fitting the mounting bracket, huh? Took me a few times in and out to get it to fit tight. Also a little tricky getting the bracket nuts on. Finally, I removed the headlight and was able to get a nut driver on the nuts. That worked great.

I started with the 22.5 degree angle ring as you did. I angled it up then had to roll the ring in slightly to get the gauge to set square. I really like where it sits and visibilty is fine for me.

I installed the backup light kit, the reverse override kit then got the guage mounted and wired, however, I ran out of time and didn't get the sending unit installed yet. Next weekends project.

 

Yeah, the ring has to be turned a bit. And I had to fungswey that bracket to get it to fit properly. Its a custom job thats for sure. Lets see a picture....

I take a pic this weekend and post. I leave my house in the dark and get home in the dark this time of year.

 

VERY nice!

 

Couple of pics of the headlight pod with the temp guage, reverse override, and worklight kits installed - as well as the factory Turf Mode swich.
