Well I've now got the louder clacky indicator stalk thanks to Spanners, but to wire it up I'm guessing I have to undo the dash... When I unscrew it can I expect just to pull it off and the fuel gauge and speedo to remain connected or does it involve more fiddling than that? J |

You don't need to take the dash off to do the indicator stalk, just undo the bottom of the unit and remove the wires. At least that's how I did it but there weren't any wires on my replacement to begin with so perhaps there is a better way? |

james, iirc, dismantling the switch allows the three wires, complete with terminals, to be removed from the unit being replaced, then installed into the 'new' switch. ken ( p.s. Old-Nail's typing faster than me this evening... ) |

Old-Nail's typing faster than me this evening... ) I've just dismantled the new switch. The red wire, which goes to the part which I assume makes the clacky sound, seems to just go into an electrical bit... there dosent seem to be a wire to disconnect? |

about taking the dash out, its just the four screws and then it pulls away, but have to be gentle that you dont pull any wires to hard, i took mine out the other day to get the right hand side de mister out (as it was refusing to budge) (useless information but thought id say it anyway!) |
