Re: speedo unit help
Ha ha I feel your pain.. I removed mine yesterday to do a dash swap, was it the fact you have to sit the bottom of it back into those hooks? Took me a while. Good to know there are other 'rocco owners near me :)

Re: speedo unit help
Yeah it was the hooks and the bits that slot into them,
I almost considerd cutting them off it drove me so mad
Still, I now know how to do it properly thanks to kind strangers

Re: speedo unit help
There are some good FAQ's about removing the clocks. Look at the ones referring to the MFA.
