Can anyone tell me what car these clocks these are from? Ignore the white faces, as they're wrong. They display 70 when I'm doing 50 
Just need to know what style clocks they are as my mates SRi doesn't have a tachometer and mine does.
Cheers

I have very similar ones in my 12v, because it's a GLS. Think mine only go up to 130mph though.

Well I can get these around to 140  I'm only doing 116.9mph (GPS) but they person I'm trying to impress doesn't know that
This transducer thing, can I just take it off these current clocks and put it on new ones? As I'm sure these are buggered as they're so out.

I'm not too up on the wiring issue, but if you swap clocks from an electronic dash to another eclectronic dash they should read the same. It's the different transducers that give different readouts.

I presumed that was another thing down to them being fucked
They are cable driven, does that change anything?
So they are from a 1.6sport/Tigra. Does that mean those 2 cars use that same clocks?

so set the needle about a cm below the stopper then lift it over the stopper to give it some tension.

I tried everything possible, the needle always go back. Besides, I need the 'electric panel' or whatever it is behind the clocks. As mine is damaged so some bulbs don't work. So I'll just get some clocks.

They are late Sport/Tigra clocks.
They WILL NOT fit your car.
