I've moved on from the plastic repair stuff to a metric speedo head -
with cruise control.

I've asked this before some years ago.

Instead of making 2 speedo heads (miles - metric), the little boys
making toys at GM made 4 speedo heads. 2 in miles, one with cruise
and one without. The same in metric. These are not interchangeable
from cruise to non cruise or back.

I have a nice pile of speedo heads with out the cruise board on the
back and I need one with cruise.

Without cruise the board is single sided with one row of attaching
wires (under the dash left side) and is fairly small. With cruise the
board is double sided, with two rows of wires in the plug in. The
board is also larger.

I can live with a miles board - just change the stepper motors for
the odometer from black to blue label. BUT I need the metric head
(dial?) with the cruise set up.

Someone out there must have one and I'll pay reasonable money for one
or I have some swappers that I'll let go.

Pete

I'm going over to Kick Hill Sunday, Pete, and I'm
bringing this email with me. If anyone has this monster,
he will and he will need this email to even know what
you're talking about. :-)

You must have an 84 because that was the only year that the Fiero had
the cruise control circuit built into the speedometer head

Yes I do so have an 84. I also thought the cruise was the same in 85.

Oh, great! Philo is going to Kick Hill too and obviously
he knows what you're talking about (aboot?), Pete. You
in even better hands now. Philo is MY hero.
