I had a dash hawk in my 05 SC, it wouldn't even work! I took it out and put it into my 09 Sonata, and it worked fine. I didn't think the Dash Hawk worked in our cars after what I went through.

they don't work in the ss/sc but they do in the ss/tc's. Mine worked fine but stored for winter or i would check for you to see what functions did or didn't work, but I'm pretty sure they all did.
did you update the DH to the newest firmware?

I'm fairly sure I did a firmware upgrade in between using it in my MS3 and SS...Plus I had to get a new odb2 cable.
DashHawk Downloads
go there, click Gen 2. Make a username and download firmware version 2.51. plug DH into pc, update it.

Where did you mount your dashhawk and where can I find the best place to buy one? It was between this and aeroforce gauges, but aero is expensive unless I buy one, but I don't know where I can find a stock looking gauge pod for two gauges. my stock gauge and aero.

I've actually bugged cp-e a while back to make us parts for the lnf...obviously it went no where...but they did a sweet DH holder for the ms3.
even has slots in the holder so it doesn't cover the vent. This could easily be done for the SS. Maybe we could bug mpx about it? But in the MS3/MS6 world the DH was freaking very popular.

the mazda guys LOVE the dashhawk. I had a ms3...and thats why I have mine haha. Bought it used off another member. Um.. they dont make them anymore so ebay, craigslist and amazon may have them every so often.
