Sure is Daz! It ALMOST looks brand new, the cast edges are pin sharp! It's almost too pretty to use, but only ALMOST! The new one looks like a thing of beauty Steve |

Looks good that Steve. Good to see the dash looking closer to factory. I've still got all my Vauxhall clobber sat here. Maybe one day it'll end up in the car! |

Thanks mate, I quite like it!I've still got all my Vauxhall clobber sat here. Maybe one day it'll end up in the car! The good new from your point of view is that the guage match I have got will also work on your car when the time comes! I think i've also found the speedo drive bits for your Omega gearbox and the cable i'm having made for the Carledo can also be duplicated for yours! Isn't too expensive either, less than £40 including VAT and carriage from Speedy Cables. Steve |

A last quick update on the Dash issues, the speedo cable duly arrived and was fitted without problems and I have sorted the other points too as suggested above and I have a fully functional dash. On the matter of speedo accuracy, it now over reads by around 11mph throughout the range, so I need to move the needle a bit on it's spindle and I should have an accurate reading. Just need to find a quiet hour to do it! Since I have a Sprint axle and Sprint speedo in the GT6 case and the tyre rolling radius is also close to original, the only unknown was the cable drive gear ratio and it looks as though that fickle goddess Karma has once again smiled on me!
