Dumg questions:

Is the internet coming off the iPhone or the wifi?
In your pic where you said "I will probably end up adding this somewhere", what the heck is that? Im not familiar with Mac except my iPhone.

I have people attempt things similar before but NEVER this clean and AWESOME or with Mac! Good work!

Wifi, could be tethered, but I'm not paying for that!

It's basically a trackpad from a laptop that is external and BT.

Those pictures are all I took. WYSIWYG. All I did on that was extend the display board wires of the WB. It has a board to board connector that I just made a 1.5' extension for. Cut up the gauge cluster, glued it in, and bam done. Easy.

This. Though personally I could care less about the needle. Thanks everyone!
