Re: [Mk2] [Generic] Help with cluster connections pls
Yeah I read that somewhere in a build thread, hoping to do a neat install and not have wires running all over the place so ideally would like to pick up the signal from behind the clocks, will update as I go tomorrow!

Re: [Mk2] [Generic] Help with cluster connections pls
Ok that's good enough I already have the dash apart and now have 2 days off so will get hunting for a black wire 1st thing
Failing that I may be stumped and have to try a different approach
