Bike Speedo unit.

Has anyone used a bike speedo/tacho unit on a car engined seven?

I wonder if its possible to use a one on a 1.8 zetec engined car?

Any advise would be helpful.

Hi Steve,

I have fitted a Vapour unit which is available from a company based with Tifosi (at all the shows) it is a nice compact unit and under £100.

Regards

Bob

just use warning lights for both. Oil light at a sensible pressure (I use a 25 psi light on the XE engine) and low fuel light at x number of litres left.
