The gearbox adapter above accepts the Escort fwd box speedo drive so its an easy setup.

Which etb guage do you use? I have a digidash 2 lite and wondered whether the adaptor plus the puma/fiesta/focus sender would drive it?

Just the std etb gauges with electronic speedo cannt see why the digi dash wouldn't work using this speedo drive.

Cheers, I have sent them an email to see if it will work but the manual seems to suggest it only works wth the magnets on the prop/wheels.
