it supposedly works, looks very nice and even has a little red lens for a chiptourqe or similar shift light. it is an impulse type (coil wire must loop through a little tab on the back). panel mount, from an MGB.

The Smiths gauges are nice looking units. If it's from an MGB (it looks like it), be aware that these are *positive-to-earth*, in contrast with the vast majority of cars including all VWs, afaik, and won't work on a negative-to-earth car.

You're quite right! Looks like only early MGBs were +ve to earth, as I can see both +ve and -ve ons advertised on ebay. Mine was a '64, which was +ve earth. This must be from a later one.
