GT/G40 instrument cluster into a 1.3CL?

Gobert23 · Post by **Gobert23** » Wed Sep 24, 2003 11:53 am

Has anyone retro fitted a set of GT/G40 Coupe instruments into a 1.0 or 1.3 Polo Coupe?

I've just bought a set of clocks in the hope that I'll gain the use of a rev counter, but I've worried that once fitted in, the rev couter is not going to work unless I go out and get verious senders and extra bits of wiring.

Does the item bolt straight in and work? ...or do I need to add extra wiring to the all the instruments to work?

Cheers for any help guys

Thanks

what, so u don't have to adjust anything, and all the stuff to make the rev counter work is all there ready and waiting on any mk3?

Magic, I'll keep everyone posted as to how successful I am in fitting them myself (doesn't look like a complicated job). I'll be changing the steering wheel at the same time for something a little more sophisticated as well...

Fingers-crossed, this could be the cheapest mod yet. Certainly hoping it'll be less hassle than trying to fit a separate rev counter.

Jobs a good 'un.

I'll get a guide typed up asap...

Mental note: Must get a digital camera for these things...
