Depends on what cars I get in or what I can drop on...

These clocks used to fetch £80.00 10 years ago, so prices have come down as such... Saw some listed on a VR6 thread from way back when...

I think you need CE2 (Single pin) 16V 160mph & 7.2 Rev limit clocks..


That's why they fetch over £100 a set...

No, for a G60 you want 8v Gti 6k red line clocks.

And 16v clocks sell for circa 20-30 quid.

I'm not starting anything mate. They may be advertised on ebay for £100, but luckily if one removes the 'ebay blinkers' one can buy them for a lot less.

To the OP, as above you can use a cable Speedo with an O2A 'box, have a little search and I'm sure there'll be a thread detailing how.
