Dials nightmare
Ive knacked the dials on my 99turbo. A long story that started when i swapped out my old bulbs for LEDs, which went fine... For a bit, then one went out, after i swapped a new one in - none of the lights worked on the dials at all except for the clock! while trying to find out why i damaged the speedo needle by leaning on it, and now after i looseded it up the damn speedo wont work either!
Soooo, replacement unit coming from ebay. But my car only has 62k on it whereas my new clocks say 106k. Can i do anything about this? Can anyone reclock the new ones or swap the old one into the new unit?
Help!!!
Needless to say i wish id just left the damn thing alone in the first place!!!

as long as the silver spindle hasnt come out of the speedo you can just take the needle off the new set using 2 spoons unscrew speedo and swap then replace needle of just use yr thumb and push the mileage dial backwards,Sounds simple but works if you push really hard and dont worry it can take it.just kee pushing till you get to yr genuine mileage

That would be a great sugestion if the '99 clocks weren't electronic .
Would of thought you would be better keeping your new clocks intact with the problems you've had dismantling your old ones. Would of thought one of the places that do digital milage correction should be able to sort out the correct milage on the new ones once there fitted.
