and to end your argument, there is a digital readout of the speed in the LCD display below the rev counter. the speedo dial is failry useless anyway as it goes up in steps of 25mph

i cant believe youve bought something that you dont even know how/if its going to work, I can see you not getting it working tbh, the electrics of the PCB will be setup differently to the readings the speed sensor etc will give from the corsa

ok, after hours of getting high on fibreglass while supposedly working, the dials are now neatly sat within the corsa dial surround.
think i will have it flocked rather than painted though, as it hides the surface imperfections alot better hopefully

just got to hope it actually fits in the car now
