Default Tickford cluster

Hi there,

Considering putting a tickford cluster in my 2002 AU3 FORTE Wagon.. I'm slightly concerned about a couple of things.

Firstly, the tickford cluster reads up to 240km/h. My Forte one only reaches 220km/h. My current cluster reporting a little high ie: reading of 107km/h is actually 100km/h.
What would happen to my reading vs actual if I put in the ticky cluster?

Secondly, what happens with the oil pressure, battery voltage etc instruments that are on the new cluster?

Cheers

Matt.

Been thinking of doing it myself also.

Cheers

I don't think I'll worry about it for now. Mainly on the basis I've got other places to put the money and I've already mucked about replacing my oil pressure switch. I'm not in the mood to do it again :p
