instument cluster

Can you fit an instrament cluster with a rev counter to a corsa that just has the standard speedo cluster fitted?

[johnny]

Simple answer yes,

What year, engine is the car

Do you know if its cable or electric

[galligan3103]

Its a 1997 1.2 8v and am not sure. I think its cable but have to look.

[johnny]

Cable is a bit harder to do because cable clocks with a rev clock are rare now so the cable has to be adopted into electric clocks

[galligan3103]

Shounds a bit of a ball ache. Was curious as am puttin 16" wheels on and was gna use the counter incase the speedo was affected

[johnny]

Well easiest way to do it is get an electric type gearbox from a 1.2 16v but you still have to f**k up alot of electrics, its a dash out job and not worth it

[galligan3103]

Sod that. Might be easier fitting a rev pod?

same problem tbh its because no one makes cable stuff anymore because it doesn't sell but you can get a transducer thing a ma bob that you feed the cable into and turns it to electric at the other side of, if you could be find one of them a rev pod would be simple installed

I managed to fit a set of clocks from a 97 plate 1.2 into another without any issues. There's a possibility that yours is electronic speedo as well

[galligan3103]

Mines is electric. Is it a straight swap for the clocks? Or do i need to run wires?

your whats electric ? if you have a cable gearbox you need cable rev clocks if you have electric gearbox you need full electric clocks

[galligan3103]

My clocks are electric and i have aquired a set of electric clocks and when i put them in the rev counter doesnt work.

[johnny]

did your old clocks have a rev clock? could be cable rev, what year,engine is the car

[galligan3103]

The old clocks are just standard with no rev clock. It is just the electrical plug behind the speedo so its not cable driven. I was told that it would be a straight swap with no problems. Its a p reg 1997 1.2 8v

[johnny]

8v are normally cable so if it didnt have a rev counter the cable wouldnt have been run to the cabin, if it was electric it would be plug and play
