Anyone got one of these, are they any good? They are from digital speedos I think.

Same one iv got. I think its a great bit of kit

Mine are not exactly the same but I used something similar. They work really well and are dead easy to set up, but they can be a bit difficult to see in bright sunlight sometimes...

I have that exact one in my car works great apart from the fuel level.

check the specs i think it works on either 100 or 500 ohms.

mine will show either half full when the tank is empty or empty when the tank is half full.

just need to get a blackbrid sender and fit it to sort the reading out not got round to it yet.

edit: it is a koso XR-SR

Brake fluid level. Often linked to h/brake.

WARNING !!

Without modification they will not pass.

All testers were notified that on these clocks it is possible to enter a mode where the current speed of the vehicle is not displayed. Instant fail.

To pass with these you will need to diasble the bottom button.

And as said above you cant see the warning lights in bright light.

Otherwise easy to install and calibrate.

What is teh definition of disable?

If i mounted this into a dash and had the bottom button covered by the dash would that count?
