Default And we have established that you can't retrofit a trip computer...

...into a car not previously equipped, right?

Default I believe not...

the plugs are different. And the sensors are not there if your car did not come with a digital trip display. When cars come with one..it is a forced factory option. The sticker on my car said under optional equipment digital trip computer $250. Of course, it is not an option to remove it if you want that car. Much like a sunroof..if it is there...you are paying extra for it. It would be cool if people could just add one on later though.
