Think its possible to install something like This in a mini, or would there be something better?

[Cookie Monster]

Looks nice. Perfectly feasable to fit to a mini, only thing that might not work is the fuel bar as far as I can see. Of course if you just want a digital speedo apparently less than a tenner gets you one fron Halfords, does the same job but without all the whistles and bells.

Less than a tenner gets you one from halfords...whaaa?

Not talking about digital bicycle speedo's are we?

[Jammy]

Yea, I'm pretty suer he was talking about bike speedos.

You can get a digital Speedo from SPA design for £160. Gives you speed, 0-60, 1/4 mile times, not revs or anything like that though. Other than that you into £200-300 for stack displays or the type or dash Ade used in his Minus.

How about a complete set of gauges and a dash pod..

Have a look around here, you can even get digital gauges to monitor you Tyre pressure/Temp..

I used to live in Colne, near Burnley!!

That clock set up looks very retro and modern, I really like it, would look great in the right car!

[minipixie]

they look ace!

How much would one of those set ya back tho? Fair bit i bet! cant seem to find the price :nugget:

[Jackman]

I cant seem to find the gauge Want to see what it has on it.

[Jammy]

Here

And yes, expensive, and then shipping it over here....

[cooper_shaz]

Yip
Your talking £500 inc shipping/taxes from the USA.

Sounds expensive, but Price of a decent set of wheels/arches..!

Dakota are one of the famous ones, but I reckon a decent bit of Google-ing you should be able to find something similar for less..!

[cooper_shaz]

the 3 dial gauge has (going left to right)

Gauge 1
Batery Volts

Center Gauge

Mileage
Max Rpm

Right
Water Temp
Oil Temp

Nice but at a price..!

[Don't Panic]

hmm now i'm Tempted not very retro (except that it'll all be in Imperial measurements) but im not going for retro so thats ok. Now all i have to do is work out if i can wire this up...

Volt meter - shouldn't be a problem
Oil Pressure - may need fitting adaptor from mini spares, not a problem
Water Temp - as above
RPM - wires up to coil i beleive, not a problem
Fuel - im not sure about this, I found on another thread that the mini sender is about 10-270 ohms, but i'll have to find out if the gauge will accept this, let me know if you know better :tongue:
Speedo - requires a Pulse generator - I don't know anything about this suggestions?

The other problem i would have is wiring in for indicator, full beam and warning lights, im not sure what to do about this.

I can't think of any other problems, let me know if you can.
