I dont care for Black and White so it not a real dramer. It does say replacment on the box which is why i'm asking ![]() Three thing to notice...1.3 on the odomiter, Dot above the 30 Mile mark and the fact it has a diferant arm.. Its a Mk 1 but otherwise I'm unsure. It's going into the rally dash and will love to get it past the 90mark. Additionaly will a Clubman Speedo cable Fit, I think So. Otherwise I'm not to worried as it will be Dyno'd down at Franks otherwise Mini Classic/ Graham's |

It is an early 850 speedo, it'll work yes but you will need to replace the speedo cable to the early type screw in one, rather than the clubman type. cost you about $20 odd dollars. This type of speedo people couldn't give away as they wanted the three clock binacle(black) ones. But are starting to make a come back it seems. As Dr said it is set for a specific ratio and you will probably need to get it setup for your car if you want it to read acurate. Mind you what mini speedo reads accurate? |

nah david if you look closely theres a high beam light in the centre at "12 oçlock" its lust like a back light or something so you can actually read the dial at night or something |

Sorry - I wasn't looking properly. My screen shown pics a bit dark so after loading it into a graphics probram and lightening I see what you are talking about and I have to say I don't have a clue. Dial is identical to mine but nothing at the 30 MPH mark. Mine is out of the car and sitting by the computer as I type. The backlight comes in from under the black ring onto the face David L |

I've seen a three binnacle Cooper/K instrument binnacle in front of the steering wheel, so it can be done. Or you could do like me and not bother with a speedo cable at all! |

30MPH was the speed limit then but that dot is a touch beyond. Have you seen the actual unit or just the photo? Could it be an image artifact? |

Anton I've seen a three binnacle Cooper/K instrument binnacle in front of the steering wheel, so it can be done. Or you could do like me and not bother with a speedo cable at all! Possible I will not be able to get on long enought Enquiry time Womdat 30MPH was the speed limit then but that dot is a touch beyond. Have you seen the actual unit or just the photo? Could it be an image artifact? Yes I have the Speedo in my hot little hands and got a great price of Ebay with no one bidding. The spot is on the 30Mile mark Im still interested on what you think regarding to having a 1.3Miles on the speedo for the blue slip. will they except it or expect the original odomiter with...yer what ever Miles on it. I will replace the old Speedo if need be for the slip and the switch them after |
