Mpg screen
« on: 29 December 2011, 09:40 »
Hi kids,

I've seen lots of golfs with the led screen that has the mpg like this one.

http://www.google.co.uk/m/search?site=images&source=mog&hl=en-GB&gl=uk&client=safari&q=golf%20mk4%20mpg%20screen&sa=N#i=2

Is this easy to get wired up and working or is it an utter ball ache, or is it impossible?

Cheers,

Dan

you need the cluster, stalk and a temp sender

temp sender and stalk are easy to fit/wire in but the cluster will need recoding to your ECU

interesting post. The older style clocks have always disappointed me about my S reg. Other than that I'm not fussed since I've fitted the 288mm setup to the front so I have the option for 312mm later down the line.

I'll give it a go
