   Right, so I've read through the threads on how to take off your steering wheel and change your clocks, I'm just looking for some advice on WHICH dials to switch to.
   
   I've just found a set of clocks from another 1.1 (assumedly a different edition) which has the revometer rather than the clock along with the 110mph speedomter.
   
   Obviously this new set will have a different milage set on it. I've done a long search but can only find details on how to have digital clock readings changed, how can I do this on a scrolling milometer?

   Can anyone help?
   
   Will I need the wiring loom from my new dash with revometer to go into my car to make the revometer work?

   I've got a new set of clocks now (110mph and a revometer) so I'll let you know once I get a chance to plug them in

   I've been toying with the thought of changing from VTR dials to VTS...

    oh right fair enough yea i could do with a set of them with my 16v conversion, means a lot of wiring though for me to fit digi dials in to my vtr
