I would recommend it I bought one so I could have gauges and keep my grab handle. Easy to install and looks good and you can shut of the display if it bothers you on long drives at night.

Works great. 3 gauges in one convenient location. Digital display helps with accurate readings compared to analog. My only disappointment is that the boost maxes out at 55 psi and I plan on someday going higher. I believe it has 5 brightness settings and an off display. Warning capabilities that you can hook up to a light or audible speaker if your pre-set warnings are exceeded. Now another downside is that when your warning is displayed on the screen that it only displays the first warning, that is...if you were to have multiple. Other than that...I love it. I hate having to like up and down the pillar to view my gauges when I could just look at one spot and see all 3.
They are a very nice alternative to anlog gauges and a they are very resonably priced. Bd is a very good company to deal with and the few x-monitors i have installed have been very easy and fit well even the dash top one we put in a van.
Give us a call or a PM if you woul like a price.

I love mine. I like to keep tabs on my engines and I needed to keep my grab handle (make's it much easier to get in and out of the truck when it is lifted and your wife is short [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] and I'm not that tall either [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]
I'm a big fan of the X monitor.
Hands down it looks the most factory when painted to match ,still retains the pillar grab handle and has a turbo cool down option while monitoring EGT,tranny temp and boost pressure.
How difficult is this to install? Are the display numbers big enough to see easily? Are there any other stand alone digital monitors that I should consider instead? Thanks
I have this and like it. It is easy to read and all in one spot. I would do it again.
