I had a single gauge pod for a Ford that fit over the steering column. I wonder if they make one for the JK. I am going to order this but I need to figure out a good mounting location. I liked the installation where the guy put it between the vents, however, for those of us with power windows, we're SOL.

I like the universal mount but I'm going to think about other mounting locations a little more.

This is now on my list! Can someone explain how you can deactivate the ESP with a gauge? Thanks

Once the gauge is installed you need to set up which platform (#2 for jeep) and then choose which 'gauges' off a list of 30+ you want monitor (you can only see two at a time) that you toggle between.

After that you go back into the settings...... and IIRC scroll down thorugh multiple screens to get to CONTROLS...select it....toggle down to ESP OFF- select it and then toggle down to exit--- once you hit exit the jeep pings and the lights go off showing ESP (and other) stuff is off.

How big is the OBDII plug for the Aeroforce gauge? I broke the Hypertech OBDII plug when I was programming the vehicle because the battleships I call "shoes" hit the connector when I had it attached. I suppose I could relocate the plug further back if I had to.

The connector is very small, about the size of your thumb and the cable exits from the side so you dont have anything pointing straight out like a programmer cable.

Sorry no picture of the connector but here is my mount (upper left corner of windshield)

Default Aeroforce gauge

Does any one have the Aeroforce gauge and if so what all does it measure on the jeep and how did you mount it. Thanks for the info.

You should try searching, there is so much on this gauge, and some great ideas too.

Hope this helps.
