Late clocks in an early car

Recommended Posts

Hi, do the later style clocks fit in an early model, is it pretty much plug and play or there more to it? the only reason i ask is i really want (one day, when i find a set) the gauge pack which sits in the centre console, i think it was an option on later vr6's? It looks really good,but mirrors the later dash, so would look a bit at odds with the gauge pack. Also anyone have any idea how hard to find they are,i'm guessing very!

 

Cheers, Tom :)

If you mean you want to fit the aux gauge panel with the oil/volt gauges - then they won't fit an early dash as the cubby hole is a lot smaller in the early one. There was a version for the early dash which was a plastic panel with 2 52mm holes for round gauges.

no, not a plug and play job, the connectors are different IIRC, it can be done, but I'm not sure if you could get the left/right indicators working as the early loom only feeds to one flashing light for both indicators.

Oh right, well i can lay that idea to rest for now! It seems the early gauge holder is easier to find as well, i've found a few on ebay and i have some vdo gauges knocking around as well. Cheers guys.
