oliwally Posted February 27, 2008 Report Posted February 27, 2008 Been looking for a replacement tacho for my mk2 that has a built in speedo. Its got 3 gauges,oil pressure/engine temp/rev counter as its an ex sprint/hillclimb car. dont want to loose that look but want a speedo to make road legal? Most i've seen seem to be around £200 and i dont want to spend that sort of money. Any ideas?

Any ideas? i take it your fitting after market gauges. i noticed that when i was lookin lqast year you could get all your dials at around £50 each but all the speedo's where £200+ i think they must just be more expensive to manufacture than say an oil gauge. best bet get to the autojumbles mate or stick with the original dash and mount the extra clocks somewhere else. thats all i did
