Very interesting peeps and good news as I have just purchased a centre binnacle from that certain auction site myself. One question, as I haven`t yet set about stripping the dash out, can a 3-instrument binny go straight in with the padded top in place or will that have to go? I`m glad to hear the rewiring is "a piece of cake", not my strong point. Oh.....someone mentioned needing a speedo cable - does the one going to a 2-instrument cluster not fit?
The padded top rail will have to go looks s.it with it and the centre binnie just won't fit right.
Rewiring is a doddle there's a thread on here or if not lll send you the info for it.
As for the Speedo cable...different lengths and different fittings so you need to buy a the right one.
It'll be worth it though.
