Did you post a link to the "dancing in my car to montebello" video.
I had posted it on the Raduno Montebello thread
http://fiatspider.com/f08/viewtopic.php ... =a#p224378

It was a good time driving up there with 4uall, phaetn and others from ICCO. Arik joined us there.

Pics are great but vids are fun :mrgreen:
I have now added my youtube link to my signature. Gotta make more and get better at it.

He has a 1438. I'm sure you meant 7500 :-)
In which case the light would never come on as something important would have fallen off by then.... ;)

Could always have a multiphase set up.... Three LEDs squeezed into the existing light binnacle. Red when in the red, Amber at 7500 and green when above 1000 to let you know it's still alive....

Yellow and green wouldn't go with Angelinas' color scheme.

Don't mess with that indicator!
It's there to monitor your Spare.
What are you thinking? !

You're welcome

How about a passenger ejection seat armed light? You can switch it on when on a dubious date? :roll:
