Ultimate9 Releases Remote Digital Dash Speedometer:

Codebreaker OBD HUD Speedometer

Place this wireless digital speedometer anywhere and keep your eyes on the road. Features: • Plug & Play Fitment• Wireless OBD Transmitter• Built-in Lithium Battery• Solar Charged Head-Unit with Backup USB Charge Cable• Automatic Power On/Off

For US$55, Ultimate9 sells a wireless digital speedometer that uses a wireless OBDII dongle to read the vehicle computer data in a small footprint that can be placed above the warning light cluster.

I’m still hoping Ineos will incorporate something similar in the next refresh of the Grenadier - the 2025’s show no changes to date.

And it's solar to boot!

But, can it sound an overspeed warning beep when you pass by a “25 MPH Speed Limit When Children Are Present” sign while you are driving at the normal limit?

Who needs a Speedo when the car dings at you when you get to the right speed??

 

[bigleonski]

All this angst over no speedo behind the wheel.

I’ve often thought a HUD would be handy, as I’ve liked a HUD in vehicles I’ve driven before with one, but not a single time I’ve driven my grenadier have I wished it had a speedo in the traditional location behind the wheel.

I don’t get it.

 

[Norb-TX]

I'm ok with speedo on the screen, but I need my reading glasses to read anything on it. This dedicated speedo looks like its the right size.

 

[Shaky]

Why waste the money, my phone sits in a holder right by the steering wheel and I downloaded the Speedometer app from Apple. In big font it gives me my speed for free !!

I don’t feel the need for it half the time but when I do it’s there if I need it. Personally I don’t see the need for anything but the current screen, but each to their own.

 

[Rubicon Maybe]

Initially I was unsure of the current set-up being in the center. But over the past few months, I have become a fan of it over the traditional placement of the speedometer. In fact, in the evening, I am an even bigger fan of the current set-up. It gives me a broader view of the road ahead. This is one accessory I am going to have to dismiss for my IG

same. I find this on the same level as "needing" a rear view camera / mirror replacement.

You guys who don’t need it are not my wife :/

From what I can tell, women are MORE adept, and better adapted at using mirrors than men.

I see no reason this skill set cannot be employed for backing up a car.

You have not met some of my female friends. They are Terrible at using the mirrors for reversing.

Adam, on a side note, curious what you did with your LR’s. You mentioned that you were getting ready to rebuild one then bought the IG instead.

I still have 1993 NAS #66 - it's sitting in limbo at a paint shop at the moment. I need to get the project restarted...

But they spend SO MUCH TIME staring into them

Fair observation. I'm on that slippery slope trying to sort out a G900 windscreen mount for my MY23 non-ADAS mirror, which is different to the US mount arm.
But why do I need it? Because I tow a camper and often reverse into remote sites so the rear view is beneficial (and secondary to my wife's best guiding attempts..). I was going to add a tow camera to my Grenadier but instead of having another screen I'm going down the same path as @bakepl and fitting a 2nd rear camera and a TPDT 9 pin switch so I can select which rear camera is active in the G900: Grenadier rear window or the rear of the camper. So it's a tick from me for a replacement mirror but for a specific purpose.

Makes sense, and certainly the mirrors on the Grenadier are less than ideal for towing.

When you get pulled over and the cop asks you how fast you were going - tell him you didn't know because a popup ad for a casino game blocked your phone.

Yes gave up on finding a replacement mount. Found ones similar but not identical. Mirror just needs to sit a little lower from the air bag warning light on the non adas vehicles for it to swing up a little more. Cable location on the G900 prevents this. I have a usb-c angle adaptor on the way and will see how that goes.
