Hi all,
I've recently purchased a 16v bx as a small restoration project.
It is missing a few things, one being the instrument cluster containing the speedo/tacho/oil/water gauges etc.
Has anyone a set?
Many thanks
Chris

I've got a set from a 205 GTi you can have for a tenner if you can't find any from a BX.
They fit straight in without any modification.
Has got about 140,000 miles on the clock though...

Chris I've sent you a PM !
Hi Matt,
Just out of interest where does Tachometer SOLID red-line start on the 205 GTi
As on the BX GTi set that I have, the SOLID red-line markings for the Tachometer starts at 6,200 RPM and is marked up to 8,000 RPM.
IIRC the 16V models SOLID red-line starts at 7,200 RPM and also is calibrated to a maximum of 8,000 RPM, so at least that's the same !

Here's a pic:
Red line is the same as the BX 16v IIRC (Couldn't tell you for sure without looking outside at mine and it's too cold
) But not the same as the BX 8v GTi.
