Title: can you fit a digi dash to an omega??????????????
Post by: craig on 19 July 2008, 02:31:32
just a thought ::)would it be possible to fit a digital dash to an omega?
noticed this on flea-bay for a vectra b and thought could it be done?
if possible do you think it would be easier with a carlton gsi digi dash as they are bigger?? ::)

As much as I liked my digi-dash in my Senator, somehow I don't think it'd look right in an Omega. :-/  ;)

In my experience they tend to be unreliable. Missing LCD segments on the Senator B/Carlton type.  On the Monza/Senator A/Astra ones from the 80s,  failed odometers, dodgy MPH/KPH speedos, bizarre behaviour of the entire screen. I like the LCD instruments but fitting one, especially to a car that never had them originally ( ???? -I'm a  newbie to Omegas) , might cause you more heartaches than it is worth.
