Odometer/speedo & stone guards
uberf1end - 29/4/03 at 08:00 PM

Anyone know of anywhere that can sell me an odometer that isn't part of a speedo?

I wouldn't mind knowing how far I am going occasionally

I have the little SPA digital speedo which I quite like and do not really want to replace it with a normal dial.
Having looked at this particular speedo, I notice it has quite a few features that I seem unable to exploit.
I have one button fitted on my dash which simply shows me my highest recorded speed but I don't seem to be able to make it do anything else.
Of course, this may just be a 'base model' without all the additional features but I have not seen such a thing anywhere.

Does anyone have one of these? I am thinking about changing my wheels and I need to know how to get to the other functions as I may need to increase/decrease the wheel sizes.
I don't really want to mess about too much in case I cannot rectify anything I might do with it (you may have gathered that I do not have a manual for it!)

Also, anyone know whether MK's carbon stone guards will fit the arches on my Stuart Taylor?

Can't help with speedo/odo problem but try measuring the arches and we may be able to help you!

Simple but effective!

They are 24cm wide (upto 25 if you include the curved bit on the outside)

Like your car, they rise diagonally up from the side of the car, so the outer edge is higher (if you see what I mean).

Are they pre-curved to the shape of the arch or do they just flex to the desired shape when you attach them?

If it's the latter, I suppose it doesn't matter as I can cut them to size.

They just flex to the curve of the arch. If we have any left I think Martin will be taking them to the show.
