    5 / clio dials?

    hi,

    just wondering if somebody could tell me if the clocks from the clio are the same as the 5, obviously they will not have a boost gauge incorperated in the rev counter, will they be a straight swap or are the connectors different?

    cheers guys, the reason being the white dials have now turned more of a yellow colour, was told about a clio being broken and was gonna have the dials but didn't want to buy them if they wouldn't fit

    sorry, probably didn't make myself clear there, wanted to replace my 5 gt turbo dials with clio 16v dials . so now under the impression the gt turbo box and clocks are electronic and clio is a mechanical set up, so not a straight swap

    Only some of the 16v clocks came with digital guage. Also you would need to swap over 2 of the lights as they are the other way round. Cant remember which ones though without looking.
