i got to the point where i had everything physically ready to fit, i just had to wire it all up and change the values of the shunt resistors on the speedo and tacho so they would read properly (as ED/BE gauges have different sweeps)

oh ok yeh thought they would have a different sweep as it looked like a smaller gauge also have the guys that do the VDO jobs looking after it so i guess that they will calibrate it for me.
