This is totally illegal even if your settin it to your cars actual milage, just stick the clocks in and keep the old ones to prove its real milage had this problem with my GSI, clocks showed about 42'000 when i sold it but also had the original clocks with 69'000 on so

Connect your 1.6 Sport clocks to the sender on the F20. Don't mess with GSi clocks.

1.6 Sport clocks look better than GSi ones. Orange needles y'see.

Not illegal at all.
Clocking isnt illegal!
Trying to defraud a potential customer is!

It's not illegal to clock your car though.

My GSi has white needles?
Does that mean the clocks have been changed?
Which means its probably clocked
