So you added the temp, compass, etc correct? I think there should be sensors that you would need to for that.

I think the compass portion is possibly embedded in the OHC. The temp sensor is in the grill area.

The fuel economy/odometer/etc is all pulled from a separate computer. Unfortunately, it isn't all housed in the OHC, but I'm sure all parts are plug-n-play.

I bought this console from the wreckers may be it doesn't work. The fog lamps had to be activated at the dealer maybe I have to do the same. I have sensor, temperature in dash where odometer is. Yes you just push the button and it changes from odometer to temperture the trip button

You have the temperature in dash? I didn't even know that was an option. Lol.
