had nothing to do today so i thought id take the dash off and have a look,what a palarva!!(only jokin about took it off for something to do.........needed to change blown bulbs,and odo not workin properly.)hopefully wont b doing that again.....have t be a contortionist for drivers side nut or a small trained mechanic minded monkey.anybody any idea how much a new speedo/odo is(mine is 1993 with no trip meter).the problem is that it only registers 1 mile on odo every now and then,good for keeping mileage down!!!!!but a bit annoying really.odo problems seem to b a tvr trait.

You could give them a try.

Although, be warned, there is a 3-4 week wait!

You having a laugh.They should be called dead slow cables.I left a fuel gauge off of a WW11 Jeep with them for reconditioning.They did a first rate job,but got it back seven months later.dont hold your breath.

There is an extensive range of colours / sizes / and different sensors that have been deployed on the speedos of these cars? Thats the reason most people take the easy way out and have them repaired.

A 4-week (frustrating) wait in total.
