Or you just press the two buttons down on it at the same time for a few seconds and it will display your speed.

maybe some stuff is pointless, but would be nice to get radio station rds etc from a non standard unit, that possible?

Its a nice gadget...nice to have a digital readout! Why do you think some cars have dials and an analog readout

The actual unit on that site robin posted wouldn't take long to make.

You would need the code though which is another matter.

its another one of those pointless mods, if the corsa came with a digital rpm and speed readout as standard then people would modify the dials to be analogue.....
