i installed my compass/temp mirror last weekend, and wanted to share my wire choice with you guys.
i can't stand a rattle... the thoughts of 4 wires behind the A-pillar trim made me cautious. The wiring i went with was the trailer wiring.. like for a boat or utility trailer. This way i'd have a flat ribbon-like set of wires going down the A Pillar and they lay flat under the head liner (or will since i don't have my headliner done yet). I used white and brown for power and ground... green and yellow for the temp sensor.
with the 4 wires in a ribbon formation, i split them under the dash into pairs, the white/brown stop at the fusebox area, while the green and yellow are still side-by-side through the firewall out to the temp sensor. to me the look is cleaner and no rattles from independently-ran wires. It's also easier to hide them in the looms as a pair.
that's my two cents...
Very nice earned yourself some rep power
