Thread: What did you do to your Puma today?

As I’ve some issues with my instrument cluster and also the fact that it’s modded to display gear selection with my 6 speed auto install (including a splash screen on start up), I’m looking at having it repaired by a Speedo specialist, but can’t find one in Australia which is really frustrating. (Of course I know they exist.)

In case it can’t be repaired, I’ve been looking at purchasing a suitable replacement and sending both units to Les Richmond Automotive in Melbourne to have them transfer the vehicle security and odometer data across, as well as have the gear display board added to the new cluster.

Land Rover want $3187.95 for a new cluster ex UK, nil stock in Oz and then there’s the cost of freight and labour so this is a pretty expensive exercise.

That being the case, I’m looking into options re aftermarket cluster build, as supplied from Dakota Digital or similar. The gear select board will still need to be accounted for though.

Has anyone any contacts for supply of Dakota Digital clusters and-or details of an instrument repair business who repairs instrument clusters in Australia?

Thanks for any info re options and best wishes all.

What about a haltech stand alone dash. Will do everything you need and they are currently on sale....I think it's the uc10. Or there is the ic10 as well which I have in my rover sd1 with ls1.

Thanks for the pointer and yes, a digital replacement like this is what I may fit if my current cluster is U/S. I really appreciate your help re the Haltech product.👍

Seems I have some work to do this weekend

I had no idea what they were so just looked them up. They are great and I think Ive just found my new ‘Wipac’ replacements. (I just changed the fronts 2 weeks ago due to them getting condensation.)
You'll have to let us know what you think after you fit them to your Wife’s 90.👍

Fitting heavy duty steering rod/track bar.

Got the drag link fitted. Getting new 255 85 Coopers this week so wheel alignment afterwards.
