Sunroof or non-sunroof? :thumb3:

The last few up on eBay have been the sunroof version.

Any chance it's tan/oak and not grey? I need one for sunroof, oak interior.

(and my headliner is out at the moment, so how soon is soon?)

I have one oak one but I am not selling it.. Its the only one that I have ever gotten so I'm holding onto it. But these are super easy to paint. I am actually running a painted one and it looks good.

This is what I used to paint my FMU and it's a damn good match.

FSM on sale eBay. $300-. Here is the link:



JDM Toyota Hilux Surf Field Monitor 4Runner Altimeter Compass Outside Temp

These buggers are difficult to find!

How difficult are these to install? Looks like it would be fairly simple.

How so? Maybe you mean just placing it in the headliner? That only takes one screw and the unit is a direct replacement for the one coming out...

However, no N/A car is wired for the unit, so one must run lengths of cable to:

1: ABS unit in passenger footwell for motion control.
2: Back of dash clock for proper dimming at night
3: Front of engine bay and purchase the correct temp sensor.
4: Steal 12v and ground from overhead lighting.

Mine didn't come with any sort of harness so I had to make my own pinned connectors to interface with every wire.

Not to mention swapping over the lamp switches and sunroof controls plus figuring out the calibration procedure for the compass.\

It's a fun project and very rewarding but I don't know anyone who would call it easy to install....

I know this is an old thread, but how did you make your own plug? I have an FMU with no matching plug for the FMU part.

Thanks

If you open up the monitor case you can release the factory plug that's part of the unit housing. There should be enough wire in there that you can clip, extend and add your own plug. Amazon has all sorts of cheap plugs you can get that would work well here.
