Does anyone here have a digi-dash in there GTI? I didnt know VW made them till browsing through my handbook for my Golf earlier and found a few pages explaining what is what on the digi-dash.... looks impresive!
-
rarer than rocking horse sh!t, and cost in excess of £200 for a second hand one.
-
have a look on german ebay...
they only work in km/h too... :cry:
-
Hiya mate, the correct name of it is the digifiz, as said it only runs in km/h, god knows what you're going to do if something on it doesn't work.
It's also a real job to wire it in, I think that there is a guide on vwvortex.com somewhere?
-
Yeah, I think theres loads of stuff about it on vwvortex.com - those yanks love 'em....even though they still have the km/h problem, eejits...

oh and it's not just a p'n'p thing
-
damn it i want one!! :laugh:
-
good luck with that lol...........
-
That looks great, a lot better than Vauxhalls digi-dash's. Be good to mod one, change the colour of the illumination. I changed my GTE 16v Astra to red and blue instead of the yellow colour....fairly easy to do.
-
i always wondered could the GTE one be used in the VW? its the same unit except its in MPH and doesnt have a VW logo!
-
I've heard that it CAN be done, but never heard of it BEING done! I guess the same applies, you'll need a degree in fiddly wires and not knackering car's electrics to do it :)
-
:nerd: I've ssen it in a golf mag so yes definately can be done.
It's all a bit too nightrider for my liking you David Hasslehoff Wannabees :laugh:
-
Is it also no the same one as the early Audi Quottros?
-
Hi, don't know if I like them to be perfectly honest :undecided:
Some on German Ebay: http://cgi.ebay.de/Digitaltacho-Golf-2-Digifiz-VW-tuning-custom-VW-golf2_W0QQitemZ8067392328QQcategoryZ99224QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
And just somebody's page with them, suppose the pic with the blue/violet digi dials are ok: http://www.scirocco2.de/digifiz.htm
Hope this helps!! :wink: AJ

The Astra GTE dash can be fitted into many different cars. I installed one into my Pug 205 GTI. Not that difficult if you know what wires are what. I might put one into my Golf. Main thing is to get the correct transducer for the dash, if the transducer is wrong the speedo will read be incorrect. The dashs are fairly easy to take apart to put a different coloured film over the yellow thus you can have whatever colour you want!!

Ah you are the man! Can I marry you? :)

Lol Brads MK2 GTI!! Found a GTE digi today in my local scrappy with the correct transducer. Going to get it and install it into my GTI....if i did it on my Pug 205 GTI im sure ill work a way how to do it on the Golf. Will keep all informed of progress and pics!! A must is to change the colour first as i dont want yellow digits so its going to be a light green colour....think that will look good as i have an oak green GTI.
-
Sounds good, ensure a write up is done though ;)
