Very nice Chris.  What system is it?  It's cool to see the traffic rear 
view.  Is the speedometer in KPH?

Side question for the List: do folks leave the tach on the stock, left 
hand position, or move it to the right?  I've moved mine to the right, 
harkening back to my piloting days, where the primary flight control and 
engine instruments were in a tight group for scanning.  It makes it 
easier for me to see how the engine is doing by scanning from tach to 
oil pressure to temp, and occasionally to AFR (unfortunately mounted out 
of easy scan).
