  1. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/FORD-ESCORT-MK1-6-DIAL-DASHTOP/292669052741?hash=item44246f5745:g:tGgAAOSwm~dabLU7 not a good one, been up a few times
  2. if there was plenty kicking around, then they would be cheaper, its the rarity of the beast that's making them expensive, and when someone does have one, they do their home work and want the earth they are so fragile and easy to damage, they can split fitting them, I had one with a small split, I had it professionally repaired, it sat on my shelf for 3 years waiting to be fitted, and when I unwrapped it the split was back again and bigger
  3. be careful of Roy Nunn, he is a con man seen him in the auto jumbles, peddling other peoples products at extortionate prices, claiming theyre not other peoples and his are better, when plainly they are, with a very bad attitude to boot, and the dash tops he had at the last show I saw him at were basically scrap parts
  4. for a good as new original one, a grand is not out of the way, for a reasonable one not mint 500 plus, ive sold bad ones for 200 and ones with just one split for over 400 they are rocking horse droppings in good condition, and apart from that horrible flocking or buying a leather sleeve (on e bay), no one seems to be able to repair them nicely in the UK
  5. rare item in good condition, I paid a grand for a mint one, and the last reasonable one I saw on e bay was taken down to a deal off e bay very quickly, and they were the only 2 I would fit in my car, it took near 4 years to find that one and the other came along a month later, none good enough since
  6. Dont happen on my i phone
  7. that link gas nothing to do with an rs2 for me might be that im in spain tho
  8. and the very reason we voted Brexit, to take control of our laws and borders again, and learn to manufacture once more, take Scotland out of the vote and the England and wales vote was over 90% for Brexit, let Scotland go, along with that stupid sturgeon doris, build hadrians wall back up, let them stay in Europe, take away their nhs, free prescriptions, free university, take away the uk pound so they have to go Euro and so forth, flood their country with immigrants, making sure that wall dosnt have any border crossings first, reckon we would save so much our taxes would reduce dramatically as Scotland is a financial sponge, and I bet they will have hung sturgeon within 6 months, let the likes of BMW and Airbus take their manufacturing plants abroad, we just seize all the plant in the process, and start using it to make our own cars etc, and stop the Europeans selling their goods here, a hard 10 years, but well worth it in the end

    help

    need a little help here, been pulling my hair out all day mk1 escort, 1973, with 2 speed heater fan heater has a constant ignition live, and the switch either selects a direct earth, or an earth via a resistor depending on speed the earth via the resistor is behind the clocks the direct earth is taken from a spade terminal coming out of the dash loom around the left side of the heater, at the same point where the constant live and ignition live accessory wires come out my question is, where the hell does the spade terminal plug into, I don't have a cigarette lighter on this model I took it apart, but so long ago I don't remember what it connected to my other one is a different loom, so no good looking at that
