if you can gather all the parts (between £1200 to £1500) plus labour to fit and paint. obviously selling my bug prodrive front end helped too

Got this one mate, but it doesn't go straight in, the dials all over read
Did yours work as soon as you put it in or was there some re-wiring to do

Love the look of this. Saw it on the tunnel run and read your threads about your trip home, bad times. But looks like it is coming back even better
Not driven mine in 3 weeks and miss it so I know how you feel.
PS. I'm saving for those wheels.

straight plug n play, and reads fine on my RB320 speedos (also had prodrive STi7 and STi8 which was fine too)

I thought I was right in thinking 5x100 but didn't want to look silly
Would look good on my classic
What is the offset on them babys? ET35?
