Speed module in place and tested!

New summertires (Bridgestone S02 PP) and a speed module (V-max module) from Kelleners are on the car since yesterday. And it seems to work too, 285 km/h on the speedometer sofar....
Is this the most unnecessary (and fun) accessory ever, or what?

Try to get a digital speed too. You can use the avg speed meter by resetting it at top speed, and the GPS has m/s in one of the hidden screens.

Does anyone have more information about the "Hidden Screens" on the GPS system?

Thanks,

Yes, go to the settings screen then press the MENU button until a new "hidden" menu poppes up. There you can select among a lot of stuff like SW/HW id codes, GPS satellite info, GPS data info, telematics, etc.
