Hi All,
I would like to run an electronic speedo in the Purvis, but have yet only found one that I like. It looks like a real pain to fit, and how would I go
bypassing all the idiot lights on it i.e. seat-belt warning, abs, door open etc.
I have pictured one below, the black section underneath it is where all the lights are, and to top it all off, I can only seem to find them in
automatic cars, (But have seen them in manual), it is really really hard to get one in manual and the dealership (Mazda) refuses to sell me one as I
don't own a Mazda, so how do I bypass the immobilizer lock-out thing on an auto.
Alternatively, what other speedos look similar, and have been proven to work? (Pictures Please)
Thanks
M
Have a look in Steve C's car build.
Pretty sure he has an electronic speedo

Hi
Im using a Spa speedo/tacho http://www.spatechnique.com/store/itemList.cfm?catID=4 I also use a GPS hud from Polaris, you will then need idiot lights,
if your interested I can find the brand I used

Hi,
I would like something more like the pictured one, I just don't really like the multiple dials/gauges.
I have looked at Steve's build, and I do like it, but not the multiple gauge set-up, I really would like something totally different, something
no-one else has.
Thanks
M
oh well

Despite all my efforts, I have not been able to find anything no-one else has...sorry!
Ok, thanks all help was, and still is appreciated.
If so, would I be better off trying to find a newer car, and buying the speedo out of it?
How hard would it be to wire in such a speedo?
Thanks
M
Boxster gauge pods look pretty cool, not sure how hard they are to wire in, most likely hard as modern cars use Can bus
To be quite honest, if nobody else has done it, they cant really give you any tips?
Fair point Denver, but I have no clue with wires and that is where my main problems are with said speedo, I can find one in manual if I wait a while
and search lots but about 1 in 200 is manual and they don't seem to be getting stripped down on a regular basis.
I think I may just have to go with stock (For a Purvis anyway) VDO gauges.
Thanks
M
