LPGsuperchargedBrumby Posted May 27, 2005 Share Posted May 27, 2005 my speedo is working casually...as in it reads when it feels like it but my odometer is working fine so i know that the cable is ok. what i want to know is will a instrument panel out of a '85 leone fit and will it all hookup? it also has a tach which i don't have, even though my ute is a GL . do all brumby/brats have everything needed to drive the tach?

Phizinza Posted May 27, 2005 Share Posted May 27, 2005 I know I have a Leone instrument panel, as I have the tacho. I would say its a dirct fit, by the looks of it anyway. BTW, I have a 89 Brumby... The tacho is run via electronics, and by what I've seen of Ford Telstars and Mazda 626's they normally include all the wiring just for the hell of it. It should fit fine, but don't just take my word on that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LPGsuperchargedBrumby Posted May 27, 2005 Author Share Posted May 27, 2005 well i hope it fits and all works like its meant to i'm hopeing the subaru lego ability stretchs to the instruments Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ross Posted May 27, 2005 Share Posted May 27, 2005 85.... isnt that an ea82 style instrument panel? If it is, i don't think it will fit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phizinza Posted May 27, 2005 Share Posted May 27, 2005 haha.. I've given up on that "lego ability", I've had clutch problems for a while now, finally just got a "non subaru" thrust bearing that looks like it willl do the job 400% better... Everything I buy seems to not fit my model.. I thought they were all the same.. Maybe I just have had some bad times, hopefully it gets better soon.... Good luck with da dash.. well i hope it fits and all works like its meant to i'm hopeing the subaru lego ability stretchs the the instruments Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LPGsuperchargedBrumby Posted May 27, 2005 Author Share Posted May 27, 2005 yeah it is an ea82 panel it looks the same physicaly and the speedo drive in the back looks the same so im hopeing it fits, otherwise im going to have to find another ea81 instrument panel or speedo unit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ross Posted May 28, 2005 Share Posted May 28, 2005 If you end up needing an ea81 panel, i know where a couple are, so give me a yell if you get stuck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ausubaru92 Posted May 28, 2005 Share Posted May 28, 2005 ive done a panel swap from non tach to tach on my wagon I had to run a new wire from the neg (i think) side of coil to the dash,. easy as pie the hardest part is putting it back together while keeping the heater control pipes in place Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
