My 12v corsa has no rev counter! Is it easy to fit new dash with counter, or better to pod mount one. I would prefer an in dash one really. Anyone done this?

Cheers

you have to make sure they do actually go into your cars hence why not asll models have a rev counter also? What year is your car? and its not that hard to fit one, just two screws wither side of the steering wheel where the dash is itself.

A friend has a 1.0 'Spring' or something (1.0 launch model AFAIK) that comes with a 6.5k redline counter.

mines a 1.4 and got a 6.5k redline counter also, i think it just depends on the models, like yr mates is 'spring' mines the 'breeze' so it could depend on that.
