hi all, right thinking of buying some clio mk1 clocks because of the cable speedo, as we now have a jc5 box and fitting all the white clocks in the gt dash but after close inspection ive noticed that all the connectors are out, I will be able to mod the clock to fit in easy but want them all to look the same so what im asking is can I change the white clio ones for the orange gt ones??

anyone done this before, ive striped loads of clocks but not clio ones so not sure how they fit on the plastic pods

any help apprec thx mick

Mick, you want to message Mr Smith

He removed a valver speedo and put it into the 5 clocks, think it needed a few mods but nothing major, he had some pic's of what was needed:agree:

Got a response for you.

Just remove original gt clocks including ribbon cable. Drill rear of housing to accommodate mechanical drive, you'll need a packer to get mechanical speedo sitting flush in housing. Note link wire required as pictured to keep clocks illuminated

Can't Seem to upload pics from my mobile I'll upload to PC later and try in meantime I have WhatsApp you buddy
