Obtain the additional instrumentation kit. Open the bonnet and remove the air intake to easily access the engine where the three sensors necessary for the additional instrumentation will be installed. Wire the sensors and connect a power wire directly from the battery, protecting the wiring from engine heat with suitable material and routing the wiring into the cabin alongside the cables.

Remove the speakers from the dashboard and the ventilation grille, which will be replaced with the one from the kit. Connect the various tubes as per the kit instructions. Install the wiring in the compartment under the radio and the instruments in the designated housing.

Connect the various cables and control panel.
