Hi all, my first post on here, so greetings.
I've recently bought a 94 1275 sprite and want to change the boring twin clock's to the triple and also fit a complete wooden dash, firstly is it easy to rewire including rev counter as guessing it's an electronic one, also can it be flush mounted onto the dash facia?
or would it be easier to hunt down three separate clocks?
Bit of a long one for my first post!

It's an easy swap, the wires for the Rev counter are already there

Coolio :)

As Tamworthbay says 'easy'. 

 

I bought from here - great service & rapid delivery - http://www.custom-consoles.co.uk/

 

or you could try - Fleabay

Brilliant, look good, I have slate Alcantara to cover it and the door/rear panel's with.

The wires are there, 2 white/black, you need the rev counter which just clips on and a new facia which screws on :)

1 white/black and one light green/orange. If you choose to fix the rev counter pod by itself to your existing clocks you will ideally need the 3 clock version of the PCB to replace the 2 clock one, as making the lighting and warning lamps work without it is a pain and you would have to fabricate an earth for the tacho too if you didn't have it.

Good old Fleabay - they've got everything.

Am going to fit the three clock version.

1 white/black and one light green/orange.

Yes this is correct, i was checking my indicator relay on my 93 car( earth had worked loose!)

i'm looking at a set of clocks, do I need the whole lot including the plastic surround even if I'm fitting a full length dash?

[AVV IT]

No if you're fitting a full length dash, you just need the white plastic inner pod, which you'll usually then need to cut the down the indicator lamp tubes on, so that it fits flush to the back of your new dash. When you do the swap you can retain your original milometer reading, by removing the speedo instrument from inside the original 2 clock pod and swapping it over with the one in your new 3 clock pod
