#1: Will GTI clocks fit a non GTI? Author: kippo2012, Location: DevonPosted: Wed Sep 26, 2012 2:35 pm ---- So 2 weeks after buying my 206 the speedo decided to stop working, but all the other clocks do, and a few of the bulbs around the dials have died as well. Took it in to the mechanic and he did the usual unplug and plug back in trick, speedo still doesn't work, and he put new bulbs in and they still don't light up...
I'm now looking around for a new speedo/clocks, but thought I might as well double check if GTI clocks fit in my LX? Can't be bothered to buy it only to find out it doesn't fit! Cheers

i think the gti ones do but not sure? what the difference?
#3: Re: Will GTI clocks fit a non GTI? Author: kippo2012, Location: DevonPosted: Wed Sep 26, 2012 2:54 pm ---- No idea if mine is plexed or not, it's a 2001 if that's any help? I know I need a 2 plug connection though
Not sure what the differences between the gti and non gti clocks are, but from what I've seen it's just the colour.

#5: Re: Will GTI clocks fit a non GTI? Author: kippo2012, Location: DevonPosted: Wed Sep 26, 2012 3:25 pm ---- Are gti's plexed then? All I know is that my mechanic said I need the ones with 2 plugs
#6: Re: Will GTI clocks fit a non GTI? Author: usher, Location: northallertonPosted: Wed Sep 26, 2012 4:09 pm ---- pre plex is before 2003ish and plexed is after

Hardly any of the ones on eBay say whether they're plexed or not, just whether they're one or two plug.. Think I'll just go for one that's come off a car the same year as mine, and hope it's the right one? Haha

Plexed -1 plug
So with your mechanic saying 2as stated yours will be pre I've had fitted gti and RG clocks in mine and every worked correctly exept my mileage read out of course

As above Pre multiplex has two connectors, white and yellow
Multiplex has one (white iirc)
Check if yours has an oil gauge or not first, as not every 206 does
If your car is MULTIPLEX then get a speedo that reads lower than yours as your BSI will take the highest reading
Does your 206 have a fat radio stalk controller?
#11: Re: Will GTI clocks fit a non GTI? Author: kippo2012, Location: DevonPosted: Fri Sep 28, 2012 12:03 pm ---- Nope, it doesn't have an oil gauge.
Do you mean the radio stalk on the steering wheel? I wouldn't say it's "fat", probably 1cm diameter
