Hm, aren't most newer dashboards/clocks ecu controlled as opposed to mechanical or direct electrical?
Thus, if that's true, wouldn't be nigh-on impossible to get it to work with the mk1's electrics?

plus an A6 dash would need so much cutting to get it narrow enough it would look crap. waaaaay too big for a mk1!
