IIRC there is a project thread on here of a nova gsi C20XE in spain that has had the astra MFD wired in.

I tried the idea out a while ago with 2 items, but gave in as the wireing would be mega complicated

First idea... Astra GSI MFD, had to make a custon top dash bit to house it:

But the second idea was better, Cav/Calibra turbo clock thingymabob, looked really at home, but meant moving the hazard switch

The corsa style display thing is pish easy. Temp sensor is a simple 2 pin sensor that on the std car goes on the front bumper bar/xmember/slam panel.

Wiring is mostly std colours, Lives, earths etc.
