Might have to look into one of them units as the water temp gauge is stuck right at the top on mine, were they fitted in later registered mk6's? finesse?

 

Puma or Fiesta mate. You will need the loom that goes with it too. Got loads in my yard lol.

 

Nice to see all's well with the motor, and yeah get those tyres changed. I only fitted those 50s as was skint sorry :)

 

How much can you do me one of these units plus loom for tommy? just looked on ebay n cheapest i can see is about 25 ish, Can you send that inficator stalk at same time for me?

As TC said you need the digi plug for it too, there's a guide on these forums on how to do it. Changing mine was a bit later in my list of jobs but on cold days my speedo kept getting stuck on 20mph, its really quite wierd to not know how fast youre going. Tell you one thing too, because the digi dials take the speed mph from the ecu and not the mechanical gear box one it's far more accurate, specially if you've got bigger wheels.

 

Thanks for the advice, will look up one of the old how to threads on this. :thumb:

Cabby is being re-tested today as failed mot on friday, nothing too major tho, new 215/40 khumo's gone on & put the cat back on prior to test, both front bottom ball joints needed replacing (apparently 1 was very bad), also failed on that pesky indicator stalk being so worn as it would stay on full beam after flicking back to dipped, totally forgot about that one tc was gonna sort but picked one up local for a fiver so never mind. Will do some pics when i get back & washed :)

Only updates is new front plate, new tyres all round. Think i got a wheel bearing on the way out so gonna do the rears in the next week or so. Also got a very nice condition black hood cover coming, rather good weather recently considering i live in mid wales. :cheers:

Perfect

Cheers matt, although i can't take any credit lol :cheers:

 

Going to look at may be changing the steering wheel for something a bit more comfortable to hang on to as i'm doing around 300 miles a week in this car. Will do some better pics soon when it's a nice day & the car has been polished.

Cheers for comments guys. :cheers:

Updates: Just replaced wishbones as bushes were getting quite bad, the cabby will be sitting on a full new set of 195/40's next week due to scrubbing issues with the 215's, this is due to the width of the alloys & the focus rear axle that is fitted. Taken the dvd player out & fitted a nice new sony headunit with aux & usb & also purchased a new set of green dice dust cap covers :pancake: You may be able to make them out on one of the photo's.

 

Few new photo's i took, 1st 2 are on the eppynt which is a military road i go over on my way to work every morning, you can see for 30 miles plus in nearly every direction on a clear day.
