1996? :wink:

If you get the right model clocks, they'll plug straight in and work.  If your hazard switch is on the dash, you'll need 2 plug clocks, and if the hazard switch is on the column you need single plug clocks.  The MFA wont work without the stalk and a bit of wiring, but without the stalk the MFA will just display as a digital clock :)

If you have the hazard switch on the dash, you'll need the early 2 plug clocks. I take it you meant to say 1986 yes?  If so that will defo have the early 2 plug clocks :)
