Lcd clock and heater slider clip

Post by Redline »

I need advice. I have purchased a set of mk2 clocks with mpg/oil temp lcd screen. I've started stripping the lcd out.. will it fit my clocks that doesn't have these features...ie have I wasted my money. Also the slider heater clip that retains the knobs.... where can I get these.... my car is an 86 GTS. I appreciate your help. Thanks

It is different. I had my clocks stripped bare and swapped the LCD from a set of MFA clocks in. It didn't work.
You can however swap the entire center and rev counter section from the MFA clocks into yours and just the time will show on the display.
