Snowy Posted November 24, 2014 Share Posted November 24, 2014 To keep thing simple in other conversions i have had the speedo modified to accept the electronic pluses rather than the mechanical speedo cable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rutts Posted November 24, 2014 Share Posted November 24, 2014 or buy a classic road angel for pennies off ebay and you have speed reading and warnings of cameras. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paulgsi Posted November 24, 2014 Author Share Posted November 24, 2014 Not sure what to use , what are u running mick? , looking at kits on ebay but almost 300 quid by the time the pick up sensor is included but seems an easy option but costly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andyc Posted November 24, 2014 Share Posted November 24, 2014 (edited) If you can find the parts you can convert the Omega Box to run a cable as the box is for all intents and purposes a Carlton Box, The Omega box has the drive hole filled with a cap that will come out and you'll need to strip the box down to fit the drive gear on the shaft, only problem is these parts a mega rare to find. I've spend four years find the odd bits here & there but there are a couple of bits i'm still looking for Cheers Andy Edited November 24, 2014 by andyc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
