Speedo & Tacho gauge retrofit

G'day,

I have got a query maybe one of you experts could advise me. I've found a set of dual '04 speedo & tacho gauge for sale. (pic attached below) And I was wondering whether if its possible to retrofit the gauges onto my existing single tacho gauge. Thanks in advance.

Cheers!

Why would you want to if you already have the central speedo.

I have to admit they are purely for aesthetic reasons. After-market gauges simply don't do it for me, so this is best alternative while keeping that "original" look.

If you don't mind sharing where you got that speedo/tach from? I've been looking for the same thing myself too!

Unhappy u cant do it!!!

tryed to do the same (but i have sat nav) but when you diss conect the old one the new tacho system comes up with CODE!!!! and the code is entered at the factory so its not possable to do!

any way i cant be done for peps with out the sat nav or choro pack cuz the wiring system for the speedo/rev tacho system is different to the central rev system! the wires for the speedo is located in the central dash!


sorry to dash anyones dreams but yo can go to ur local mini dealer ship and ask them but they'll prob say the same

i know this cuz i have also tryed to do the same but my new rev/speedo system was going off to get modded when i tryed it it failed so i went to my local dealer and they said what ive said above!

sorry
