Not mine but popped up on VZi. Its a seriously good price for a set of all three and a working type 3 clock is a rare thing indeed and would probably cost at least two thirds of what he wants for the set.

All look to be in great condition too

Definately a good buy Mike. They do look nice on a buggy dash but then perhaps I am a little biased  ;D

Only thing you will need from the look of it is the bulb holder for the fuel gauge/warning lights pod. Let me know if you struggle, I might have a spare one somewhere

Well they've been delivered. By and large in pretty good nick but the fuel gauge unit is going to need a bit of tlc.

As mentioned above it seems to be incomplete on the back. Looking at comparative images on the web there would seem to be a black plastic fitting on the rear of the gauge which all the electrics clip on to.








This doesn't have that but I am sure it will be possible to sort it.

Mike, yes, its the bulb holder you are missing. I've got a spare but it seems like I might need it as I'm having issues with one bulb on the one I'm using.

A wanted post on VZi should turn one up fairly quickly.

Let me know if you struggle with the wiring. Its fairly simple once you get your head round it

No problems Ben. I've had a look about and there seem to be a few around. Hopefully one will turn up before long.

Cheers,

Mike.

Looks like you got a good deal mate.
Shame about the missing light block mate, hope you manage to find one.

Cool, let me know if you need any help with the wiring.

The whole pod needs a switched live to work, that's what the long wire off the back is. Will need an earth from 31 as well.

Rest of it is pretty straight forward.
