yes, this is very straight forward so long as you obtain the correct one. There two types, cable and electronic. You just have to take a look at the back of your current one to find out.

take a look at your current dials at the bottom pf the speedo ther will be a number if it starts
w= then its mechanical
k= then its electic
as long as you put a set in from a pertol \"guessing yours is\" and the munber starts the same way yours does then its piss easy

no m8 thats not what i meant
some diesels had cable rev counters cos of the lack of a distributor or coil etc
std back ground ie face of the clocks are black!
