    Corsa B Dials ??

    I have an M reg 1.2 8v corsa that im using for my first car and i would like to know what work would be involved in adding a rev counter as my car currently doesnt have one.
    Also is it possible to fit the astra gte digital dash display as i love the way it shows the speed and the revs which rise upwards
    cheers

    is it the dizzy engine, if so you use the dizzy main lead as a rev counter pick up. Pretty easy mod i think you should still be able to fit a digital dash aswell

    You should be ok to locate some rev counter clocks from an equivalant 1.2 corsa B and bolt them in. Many of them have the wiring already in place but if you fail in finding it either ask again on here or pop onto Corsa Sport - for Vauxhall, Opel and Holden Corsa and Barina as they have a how too available.

    Just remember that you need to know for sure if yours are cable or electric driven
