    Looks like their control box holds most of the electronics and just the displays are in the cluster. Mine does not need a control box, everything is in the cluster.
    Thanks! Kinda what I was going for, that's why I used a font similar to the original.

    Sensor wires, power, and ground. Not much more than a stereo install.
