It's quite bad. Need to have a good think about how to get this corner sorted. Best bet would be to replace the corner entirely with a piece from another car.

Yep, another Mk3 Smile

Nothing new really, just a 3 gauge cluster. Very poorly packaged, resulting in the one glass dial cover breaking. Also no PCB board. None of this should be a problem though.

Looks in really decent shape though. Apart from the need for a new PCB, I would imagine you can clean that up quite easily.

Looks to be an earlier GTS rev counter with the 6500rpm redline but unfortunately the Speedo gauge is a standard one topping out at 140km/h rather than the GTS 200km/h, that would also explain the lack of the PCB as a 2 gauge wouldn't have allowed for the rev counter in any case.

Did the GTS retain the 200km/h item throughout production? Or did it drop to 160km/h later on?

I don't mind using the 140km/h one though.

They all had 200km/h speedos as far as I know.

I have an early version with the two wire rev counter, though. So not sure if it might have changed later?

I could be wrong, so don't quote me. I might PM you at some point with regards to the rev counter and stuff too.
