Devonutopia took an instrument pod apart recently cos he was bored one day...

He may be able to link you to the thread and you can perhaps ask him if there are any particular pitfalls...

You can, but it won't read the right speed the the vRS speedo is a smaller scale up to 90mph then goes "half speed" for the rest of the travel - whereas the TDI is the same scale all the way around. You could easily fit the red'ish needles in though.

ah right i see what u mean. is there any clock faces out there that would fit the fab but also work out the same all the way round the clock so my speed won't be out??

Thanks for advice guys

I have some spare vrs clocks here!

Just use the vRS needles on your original dash face,

possibly try lockwood dials
