Hey guys, would anyone be interested in a new PCB for the GTS three clock cluster?
I want to know by the number of guys who would like one (or two) if it's feasible to get some manufactured just for us.
Die line and circuit layout is ready to go. Just need an idea of quantity to get prices.

Hey Malcolm, as far as I'm aware you can get them in from the UK but if the price is right I'd be interested in one possibly even two if the price is super good

Yip Ed. $90 from Minisport Aus. excluding shipping.
Minispares UK don't have the right one, but their 3 clock derivative RCB is £51
That's a little rich I think, lets see what the quotes say and what the MOQ is.

Damn, those are a little on the steep side of things but to keep our cars alive there are going to be certain unfortunate wallet sacrificing steps to be taken. Well worth it in the end though.

I've heard/seen a few clock clusters around that are good, but the pcb is broken. It'd be nice to see them working.

The PCB goes onto the back of all the clubman clusters Dom. It is just a compact neat way of connecting the dash lights and gauges.
The one Minispares has is not for our cars, the rev counter section from a GTS is not the same.
I have two sets of GTS clocks that I am trying to restore, replacing the glass, broken/missing clips etc. but both have damaged PCB's.
One can solder wires to bridge the missing or broken parts of the PCB but it does look k@k although it works.
i'd much rather have a nice intact PCB there... call me ocd, but that's just me.

It's one of those things that once fitted you don't see again but you know it's there so you're happy.
