Rev counter clocks in 1.0 pov spec??

[MattBrown]

Hi all,

Basically I'm after a way of putting a rev counter clocks in my 1.0 nova?

Is it possible? Will a set of corsa 1.6 clocks fit??

Yep.

Did this to my 1.2. Pretty easy job. Just run a wire from the coil to the rev counter on the 1.6 clocks.

I butchered my original speedo into my GSi clocks, looks like cool and is correct speed. Ran the GSi speedo off my 1.2 box for a bit and was waaaay out.

corsa dials dont fit but nova ones do.

[matt_vaughan]

Ah sorry, thought he said Nova 1.6 clocks.

Why do people insist on trying corsa clocks? When Nova 6 dials are so easy to get hold of, why bother?

Anyways, Matt, just get yourself some GTE/GSi Clocks (depending what dash/year car you got) and fit them.

Been offered corsa clocks for £5! But useless if won't fit! where and how do I get a tacho signal? Cable? Wires?

negative side of the ignition coil. a wire from there to the connector on the rev counter on the gte / gsi / sr speedo

[MattBrown]

Excuse my ignorance!

I run a wire from the output side or input side of thecoil?

Pic would be nice;)

ive got a 1l and my clocks were plug and play!

my 1l before hand also had the rev counetr wire allready there

if tis a mk1, the rev counter wire might be wrapped up in that stick-as-fook foam insulation, if it is then unravel it and itll be a solid green wire

my current mk2 allready had it on the plug, so just plugged them in and off i went lol

rev counter is solid green on both btw if you want to look first :thumb:
