    Thumbs up v70 ph1 Clocks into 855 t5

    Hi, does or can anyone give me a quick run down on how to fit/remove the instrument cluster from my 855 t5.

    HAve bought some v70 ph1 160mph clocks, i know i have to take the top of the dash off but where are the screw's and clips located?

    Any help much appreciated.

    Why do you need 160 mph clocks for your car surely 140mph ones would suffice lol
