Hi,
I like to know how hard to hook up the Calais dash to a Exec?
At the moment I can not see any loose wires under the dash.
Is it possible to hook it up. If so pictures would be great
Where can I get the patch loom for the operation for the Calais (level 3) dash and how hard is it?

VN is real easy.

The wiring is not in the base models.

Best bet is to get an Instrument Panel wiring loom from a VN Calais, it plugs in where your loom is now (replaces it) and has all the plugs in it as needed.

Then you only need to run the yellow/black wire over to the empty connector on the ECU for fuel flow.

Yep - you need the calais switch banks that have the mode/set/+/- switches.
The calais loom swap will allow direct plug in of these.

You may want to keep in mind that the switchbanks for each side can be quite pricey, even 2nd hand, the L/H one for the VP cost me $75.
