Post subject: | Gauge Clusters |
Hey, I was wondering if there were any gauge clusters from other cars that could be adapted to the mini? The ones i have seen dont seem to have a screw bit for the speedo cable. I know i could get a clubman 3 gauge cluster but i was wanting something a little different. Thanks Blake |

I know early Camira SLE clusters are a close fit but i think you have to modify the speedo cable at the speedo end a lil bit |

Right I may need to clear this up. I'm wanting something Where the tacho is the biggest dial on the cluster as I drive off the rpm not the speed but yeh i'll find a picture of thE kind of thing. |

If you drive off the RPM your licence will not last very long. ![]() |

![]() I've been doing this for 15 years, haven't lost it yet ![]() I reckon if I judged my speed by the speedo, I would have lost my licence long ago ![]() |

I find it really hard to lose my licence, its always in my wallet. And i just go about 65ish everywhere, nice and smooth with the cam in it then. |

Ok im just running off the top of my head as an avionics tech, but you could most probably use any gauges in a mini its just a matter of remanufacturing the looms that come from various components to the back of the gauge..... wouldnt be too hard just a bit of persistence and crimping and you can have any gauge cluster you like. Please someone tell me if I'm wrong Cheers Hoba |
