Yeah it was an awesome car but the bottom end was going and didn't have the £ to fix it so I sold it on. Wish I had garaged it and did it when I had cash now... Hindsight is a wonderful thing and all...

If your cockpit is exactly the same as cornishlad's, then your car is a MY98, and that triple gauge holder WILL fit. It fits in place of that top cubby's lid.

If you have the earlier interior (MY97), then there is no top cubby...so no.

Sure.

Instead, you can get the Lamco 3 gauge insert (goes above the radio...or below. Can't remember).

Don't pay £2 a month its a rip off. Cancel that asap. You can pay £12 for the year, as a one of payment. Looks like your paying £4 a month on the Private Classifieds section.

Hi Aaron
I couldn't get pics to send via pm,think you need to do them through photobucket and I hate that site!
Anyway I'll post them here,,this is the gauge conversion:
I need to sort some better gauges but you get the idea.



I haven't time to take it out to show you the back but this pod was used for the conversion:
