    I got an 02 wrx and obviously it does not have an outside temp gauge. It not that big of a deal but it would be nice to have one. Does anyone know of an easy or not so easy way to make one. I remember someone posted a picture of whole little unit that showed a bunch of stuff that he put in the dash. I would like to find what that was. I searched but could not find that post. Thanks, Taras

    its plug and play, one wire needs to be tapped into.
    (plug and play for 98-2001)
    maybe different for wrx.

    My buddy has one in his RS, but he plans on taking it out. Because he is putting a turbo kit on it and has the gauge pack to put there, so believe he would sell it.
    His name is " irishred" if you want to pm him. And he is in Vegas until Saturday, so he can respond when he is back.

    It's mostly plug and play. There is one wire that should be taped in to the speed signal wire, but I didn't bother doing that, and it works just fine. I may hook that wire up at a later time.
