keirz Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 its quite easy mate, i did mine myself.the only wire i stuggled with was the one that reads the revs from the ignition coil. but you can tap into it via the diognostics box in the top right of your engine bay. just plug it in the one that says ig-. hope this helps.

woody Posted October 26, 2006 Author Share Posted October 26, 2006 just had i look know what one ya mean surely it cant be that easy?ill have a closer look tomorrow when its a bit lighter Quote Link to post Share on other sites
keirz Posted October 27, 2006 Share Posted October 27, 2006 it depends on the tacho. if you have the instructions it should be straight forward. if its an autoguage one i can sort you out the instructions.the rest of the wires are straight forward, + battery, earth ect.apart from the ig - one. which goes in the diagnostics box.

starletno1fan Posted October 28, 2006 Share Posted October 28, 2006 yeh i fitted mine myself, took me a good hour and a half to do it all tidy though! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
craigmt Posted December 9, 2007 Share Posted December 9, 2007 Hi, is it possible to change the dash board of older starlet sportif to a white style with the tachometer like some of the newer models, , my concern is there might not be the right connections to do this in the older model (like mine) , its just i only have a petrol / speed / temperature black display.
