hi all

quick question - i have a digital dash in my mark 2 nova and though i do like it ive had reluctantly more trouble than joy from it as it was fitted to the the car by a previous owner. how easy will it be to convert the loom back to accepting an analogue set of clocks and what do i need ??? do i replace the transducer with a speedo cable aswell ?? any help will be greatly appreciated....

yes the transducer has to be replaced with a normal speedo cable...that as far as my knowledge goes with electronics :p

If your fitting standard clocks you will need the standard plug to go with them. Cut off the 2 digi plugs from your loom( at the join to your nova loom) then re connect the standard plug to the nova loom matching up the colours. Also lose the transducer and re fit the standard speedo cable.

thanks leggattr :) trouble is people dont seem to sell the clocks with the plugs, maybe worth just getting a nova loom also for the necessary plugs ????
