Why not make it with the hole for the screen already designed in the print?
@@ianholmen888 for sure wanted to, but when I cut the hole in the 3D model it significantly increased the print time due to all the extra tree supports. Need to figure out the best layout. Still working through that part…
A lot of old cars had digital dashes. Just not screens

So easy
@@screener545 so have a precut hole???
This would be cool, but i would want bigger screen and looks like that oem e30 cluster is, but add some extra gauges at the backround
Maybe could go with 10inch or two circular digital cluster gauges to the left and right 👍👍👍
my dude 3d printed the dash, then sawcut the size of the screen into it. the dials are not even linked to the car data
It’s all work in progress. Just finished making a bezel, but I think I’ll modify the 3D print to have the hole premade.

A thousand times better the standard dashboard
@@antoninoscannapieco5508 standard dash is 1000x better???

@@ThomasP187 thanks!!! Always WIP here 😁 I like your idea, bigger screen is always better 🙌
This looks pretty cool its takes a 90's styling and brings it right into the 80's
@@Lawrence-uw6cs thanks, we tried to go with a mix of old/new. Can’t wait to get her on the road 🙌
@@Itsallaboutthebuild I say 80's just because it reminds me of some of the digital displays of that era, less the colours.
@@Lawrence-uw6cs thx, not sure if the color pallet is 80’s 🤔
@@Itsallaboutthebuildyou could have any colour screen in the 80's as long as green or orange! The styling of the incremental ramp instead of dials is more the 80's look i think, either way it's unique!

How is the latency? (i.e. tach vs actual rev/rpms)
@@uses0ap great question. Haven’t got that far yet, but we plan to hook up the raspberry pi to a speeduino ecu. There’s a few vids out there on speedunio that you can check out 🙌
I just bought an e30 it was a desert find and boy does it need alot of wireing fixes
Nice, our e30 had tons of rust which looked like it worked its way from the inside from the sun roof. The passenger floor was really bad and the passenger trunk section had to be cut completely out. This build is getting a little crazy, but there’s no going back now 😁
Really curious why you didn't cut the hole for the screen into the file before you printed it?
@@eddib17 great question, first was a prototype. Would have added much longer print time with hole due to additional tree supports to hold the large piece together while printing 🙌
@@Itsallaboutthebuild Adding the screw mounts to the design wouldn't make the trick?
@@antoniomarquez498 You could add screw mounts too. Adding the cut out surprisingly would have taken more time due to all the different 3d supports needed to hold the part together which is why we initially did it this way. Need to play around with 3d file some more 🙌
Just subbed thanks
@@Alientraveler003 awesome, thanks. Enjoy the content 🙌🙌🙌
Hi!, what could I do if my car is iold (1977) and do not have ecu or obd2?
@@octaviofranciscosalcidoroc9226 great question. Research using a audrunio and sensors to read different stuff like oil pressure, engine temp. Etc… An audriuno can read analog signals and convert it into dc which can be sent to Radpberry pi. Other folks may have some stuff out there you could use 👍
I need a new radio but hard to find a single Din 8 inch with DSI port
If you dont have a DSI port I guess only way to configure the gauges is by bluetooth or usb ports on Pi ?

Can i use an old Raspberry Pi instead of 4?
Have lying arround a Raspberry Pi 2 and a Zero W that i used for college projects.
@@Kaztled you can but the screen may be laggy with an older pi with less resources
this is brilliant, i was thinking of doing a digital dash on a 2005 VW Passat, i have bought a broken cluster to use for dimensions so we can draft it up on CAD - did you do a fuel guage? im thinking of using up the whole space to add things like a digital fuel guage etc also - great job! - subbed!
Thanks for the sub 👍. For fuel gauge you could add a circular gauge in TSDash as well. I should have covered that. Are you thinking of going with standalone circular gauges to the left and right of the LCD screen???
@wheelsandstuff if you do this please let me know because I would like to do my Passat also. 2005 tdi
@@Itsallaboutthebuild i was considering that, i also found some sharp form lcd's but not sure if they still produce those, i was thinking maybe using the form lcd to cut the shape of the cluster - just depends on availability vs cost i guess
@@wheelsandstuff you could cut more out of the cluster, but I think it would need to have higher infill for the 3D print. To get this one done quicker it was like 8% infill which didn’t work well when you start to cut into it 👍
this looks similar like my old opel kadett gsi dash...

Still trying to figure out the cut out for the screen. You using 7inch screen size???
Have you figured out one with the hole already cut out for the screen ?
So I created a nice clean 3D printed bezel for this one. I’m trying to cut out the screen in the original 3D print, but the supports are crazy. The print will take tons of extra hours 😥😥😥 Still trying to figure it out 😁😁😁
Wouldn't an off the shelf Digital Dash like the AIM Strada or similar which is purpose built for this be a better option? They retain all the OEM vehicle functions and add additional functionality. Removing the mileage for example would make it non road legal in lots of international markets.
@@user-yh4fr2fq2o you could go with AIM, Holley, or HalTech for sure. Will cost a mini fortune. Just trying to come up with something for the track cheap. But mileage is except on this bad boy as motor block is different than original here in the states. Not sure how other countries work 🤔🤔🤔
@@Itsallaboutthebuild Thats fair. In Europe, it doesnt matter about the engine, only the VIN, and the mileage attached to the VIN cannot be tampered with in any way or it will be considered 'clocked' and if its not displayed at all, it will not pass its annual Ministry Of Transport certification to make it road legal, and if you cant get certification, you cant get insurance or road tax the vehicle, all of which are digitally interlinked on the government database, and over here they use a system on all police vehicles and road cameras called ANPR (automatic number plate recognition) which scans every single license plate it sees and automatically red flags any of the above which is not in place and the nearest law enforcement vehicle is notified and dispatched to hunt you down, lol. We truly have Big Brother watching you over here when it comes to vehicles and road usage.
@@user-yh4fr2fq2o oh wow, here in the states for old cars I've ever plated no one has verified milage. Title will then sometimes say "exempt" for milage...
Hey so quick question. I'm thinking about doing something like this for my motorcycle or even a celica gts(1991 year). Can I use all this on a carburetted vehicle without any sort of ecu(only cdi) or on a car without obd2 with the stock ecu?(Stumbled upon this video and subbed you guys do some very interesting stuff)
Much appreciated, so for non OBDII or just carb with some sensors you’ll need to add something like an audriuno that has analog to digital conversion. It gets a little more complex which is why we are going to go with speedunio standalone ECU connected to the Raspberry pi. Best of luck 👍👍👍
Can you run multiple screens on the same CPU/raspberry… Or run multiple raspberryPi and screens in parallel?
The Raspberry Pi Model 4 B and and Raspberry Pi 5 both have 2 micro HDMI output ports, so you could run more than one screen. You could launch TSdash on one monitor and perhaps another app for stereo functions...Sensing a part two to this vid.... :)
@@Itsallaboutthebuild …touchscreen? 🫣
What if someone had a HUD for the backseat, for Uber passengers… That compiled live dash data, ie Speed… with Radio, driver info etc 😏😏

@@akshaythepunekar thx
I want this on my 06 Arctic Cat Side by Side. However I have no OBD port. Any recommendations on wiring this in? Also any recommendations on what all I need raspberry pi wise?
We have pre-obd ECU so we are going with standalone speeduino ECU. That ECU can then be hooked up to raspberry pi for display output. If you want to keep your stock ECU, you may have to look at other board such as audruino as it will have analog-to-digital converters. That will be needed to take existing analog signal and convert to digital in order to display. It gets a bit complex which is why we plan to change our ECU. Plus a different ecu will allow us to do more tuning for things like turbo in future 👍

Hey I know this videos old, how do you get it to communicate with the Pi? Can you use an OBDII, to USB and plug it in to the Pi?
If you have OBDII check out openautopro loaded on the raspberry pi instead. Then you can go OBDII via Bluetooth to raspberry pi with a Bluetooth dongle 👍
what hardware is used to connect to the car obd2 port to the pi
Our 1984 e30 doesn’t have obd2 so we are going with a Speeduino standalone ECU, BUT if you have OBD2, you can use openautopro software instead of TSdash loaded on the Raspberry PI and use a Bluetooth obd2 scanner to connect to the Raspberry pi 👍
How much would you charge me to make one exactly like that for me am in Jamaica getting it here isn't a problem but I can't do all you just did.
We are still working on the kinks like the bezel cut out, so its not exactly ready for production yet. What year is your e30???

Couple of different options. Go with Megasquirt ECU, Speeduino, or micrus standalone ECU. If you have OBDII, then you can keep raspberry pi and go with something like openautopro instead of TSdash 👍

You’ll need an audrunio with some analog inputs. The raspberry pi doesn’t have the right inputs 😔😔😔
Nice work, what about the fuel level gauge ?
Thanks, oops did we forget that one…
Get a bigger screen that fills thr space better
@@cooluser23 was challenging because the bigger the screen it would start hitting the corners of the overall dash

Testing testing, my reply got deleted twice 😅
@@Itsallaboutthebuild Okay let me try this again since youtube is being buggy, or you'll get the same comment x3😅 RealDash supports the Speeduino and the Raspberry Pi
@@nickiminajwannabe deleted really??? That’s strange…
@@nickiminajwannabe oh ok. I see what you’re saying. Instead of TSdash we could just use realdash as the dashboard software layer. Perhaps another video comparing the different options 🤔🤔🤔
so is the power routed from your ignition? does it have a battery or anything for safe shut down or that not an issue? also, im assuming you're routing an obd2 cable or Bluetooth for data? im wanting to make a small secondary screen for my truck to display extra information on my dash. your set up seems the easiest so far.
We are replacing the non OBD ECU with a standalone ECU, Speedunio unit. The raspberry pi will connect to that via USB. Plan to power up via ignition start. Also, there's small UPS battery daughter boards you can get for Raspberry pi which can auto power off the unit gracefully when main power from USB is shut off. Thinking of going that route to make things automatic with safe power shutdown.What type of truck do you have?
@@Itsallaboutthebuild 2005 4runner. i broke my AC units display lcd while doing a led swap so it gave me the idea to use the empty screen slot for a custom readout
@@tylermiddaugh1515 oh I see. If you have OBDII, you could use openautopro or real dash on your raspberry pi to get additional info from your ECU.
Excellent video!! Ive always wanted to do this to my e30s. What write up did you follow? Do you need to be on standalone ECU?
Thanks much 👍 This e30 project is getting out of hand 🤣. Hope yours is in better shape. So we plan to go with a Speeduino standalone ECU and that will work with TSDash. You’ll have to replace the Jetronic or build some custom ADC to read the sensors which I couldn’t find any info on.

@@ForgeSpace it uses usb or secondary serial interface. However Speeduino looks to also support canbus 👉 wiki.speeduino.com/en/reference/Interface_Protocol
Great build! Question for you if you know: how resistant to heat are these components? I live in Texas, and inside the car. It can get very very very hot. :-)
Thanks much. We printed this with PLA, which isn’t the greatest for hot sun but this was more of a prototype. We’ll print the next one with a cut out already in ABS filament. ABS filament is way better for parts that will be in the sun. ABS is good up to like 180F degrees 👍
Thank you! Do you happen to know if the electronics are also heat resistant? Worried mainly about the screen, but that may be based on older screens.@@Itsallaboutthebuild
@@ssskids123 looks like most of the newer screens are the same make as what car radio vendors use. In that case they should hold up to the same spec car radio touch screens can withstand 👍
Hello, first of all, congratulations for the great work. But once I saw the video I decided to buy it and install it, and I don't know if it's just me but it takes me a long time to start and it doesn't move as fluid as yours. Another question, how do you turn off the screen from the phone? Greetings and thank you!!
You can connect to TSDash build on the raspberry pi from your phone via the WiFi connection. By default the TSdash build has WiFi enabled. Connect to the WiFi and open your browser to connect to the web version of TSdash. On that page you will find the shutdown option. Not sure why yours may be a bit laggy. Are you running a raspberry pi 4 or higher?
@@Itsallaboutthebuild Thank you very much, I didn't know the web version of the phone. I have Rpi 4 and I installed the same image as yours downloaded from the website, I have also paid for the tsdash license.
