Quick question, im putting an 2.0xe into my 1.0litre spin, now i have heard rumours that there are like 12 different transponder/transducers and it is a bugger to find the one you need for an nova? is this true or is it just another nova myth! many thanks. also when buying one am i right in believing i need the 2 plugs for the dash, the transducer and obviously the clocks? plus what is average prices of a digi dash these days? lol sorry for going on a bit

rough price is about ?50 for one. theres only one type of transducer. the 2 plugs should come with the dash a black and a white one. im sure someone can supply u with a wiring diagram to wire the nova loom up to the dash's loom. its not hard anyway i managed it in about an hour. youll also need to run a seperate wire from the back of the dash to your coil as im guessing your nova hasnt got a rev counter??

I not long done a digi dash conversion on my 1.2i and found there is already a wire in the standard loom that does the revs.
its the same colour as the digital dash wire loom .
hope this helps !:thumb:

couldnt tell you if your loom will be the same tho .
If not im sure its just a quick job of feeding a live from the coil !
P.s any one have any ideas on why my digi dash (tick rev counter) wont switch to mph ? clock fault ?
