Yeah mate I have the whole setup from an e1 gts. Gauges, pod, can module, 3 loop wiring and can module to car loom. Also have the suspension wiring still connected which has a plug that fits the can module to car loom. I’m just hoping I could utilise some of the 4 wires that are I. The loom that connected the Atari gauges which plug in on the passenger side of the head unit. If not I might just bite the bullet and get the harness from lsxtreme and wire it up according to the carmod write up floating around

that loom at the top has that plug on it looks to be right to suit the plug on the passenger side so should just plug in, then see if they all work or not

Yeah I was hoping it would fit but the ssv one was a 4pin plug and the hsv gauge one is 6 I think from memory. Was hoping it was plug and play, maybe 2010 ssv they changed. I don’t know ‍

the e1 e2 e3 all used the same gauges just slight look difference thru the years, behind is all the same, i thought that 6 pin was in all sitting there maby not used unless u have the gauges ? unless because u got the other atari gauges it was different loom, what wires are missing from it if yours are 4 wire is it just the can wires ?

The E3 setup is quite a bit different to the setup in the pic.

Vents are the same, gauges and electronics are similar, but their mounting is different.
Different brackets for mounting the gear and the top cover is all one piece, from the gauges down to the lower console.
Makes it very difficult to access the gauges when their backlighting requires repair.

When I get home I will have a look and see the colouring. I’ve been trying to find an image of the wiring diagram to use to break what’s what and just add the rest that are needed but I know idea what is what with the 4 pin plug. Hope that makes sense
