Well that sounds like a better Idea than gluing bloody magnets back on to the propshaft every few hundred miles.
I will watch with interest.

I have three, two I use are designed to be camera alert systems, the easiest to read is the Road Angel professional connected, and it has the advantage of alerts too.

in a tunnel,.. use the analogue speedo,...

I think you know the answer! You'd also have to wait quite a while for the GPS to reacquire the satellites when you switch it on.

And for the avoidance of doubt they won't pass an IVA, but I assume this isn't an issue for the OP.

is using a smartphone a possibility

etc.etc.

Thanks for the replies, I was looking for something more 'fitted' as apposed to something which youd stick to the window screen ?
