What are these bits for that I've circled - Hooked up the Digidash and everything seems to work OK when it does the test when the ignition is turned on

Cheers for any help :)

Left circle is a bulb, can't tell where that is on the dash but if it's all lit up it's probably the middle bulb, so don't worry about it.

Left hand circle is bang on the middle of the dash the right hand circle is behind the oil/battery/fuel/temp gauges...

left circle is defo a bulb hole

hold it up to the light, if its a dash warning light you will see what it is

I think it's just another bulb to light up the LCD bits...The red plug/connection bit, what's that ?

Another question...What's the wee red switch for on top of the dash ?

One setting it reads 127/288 and the other setting it reads 125/288

Red plug is nothing lol.
The centre blub isnt needed.

The little red plug decides between the two transducers. Like i said on msn lol

Yep :) My gauge works like, was just wondering if anyone else who had a Digidash didn't have a working oil pressure gauge

Ad im confused too.

My 6dial clocks dont have a working gauge because i cant fit the oil pressure sensor on my 16v.

Does anybody have a digidash in a Nova without a working temperature gauge? Mine worked, and they'll all work if it's wired up, but just wondered...

I have the auto tensioner for the alt belt. Bracket is massive and theres not enough space.

How come there a pain in the b*stard to fit into a Mk1 Nova ?

I took on the task of fitting one in my mk1 without the knowledge that it was a f*ck on.

After a long time of cutting the dashboard and cutting my fingers, i got it too fit.

Once ive finished putting it in ive took pics and ill make a small guide to give others a bit of an idea what to expect when they do it.

The reason its soo hard, is because it just does not fit what so ever, you have to look at the dashboard o see where to cut, and then just start pulling the dash to bits and hope it fits, in the end mine did.

I spent ages trying to get it to fit, and it did, but looked ghay and all the dash was mangled!

Fire up loads of pics!
