Yes they will work fine, also if you fit a MFA stalk you will have a working MFA (apart from oil temp and outside temp :) )

think I'll bid right at the last hour on ebay... that's the thing to do I believe? It's 6.50 at the moment, I don't know why I put down a bid yesterday to be honest... I guess so I could have an idea of how competetive it would be... Knowing my luck - a huge swarm of ibaza owners will bidd for it in the last 1/2 hour!! Fingers crossed! I don't half moider! ;)

Thanks Fl@pper!... that's handy! :) ...I know Arun - how could he / she!! I really thought that they wouldn't get any bids or attention you know... I mean - I've seen interiors, lights, alloys for mk2's go for not much more than the starting auction bid... with 2 bidders if that!

Will the MFA work on mine? If I buy the MFA wiper stalk too? Or will I need the wiring loom out of a '97-98 Ibiza for it?

you will need to run 4 wires from the stalk to the clocks then you will get:~
time traveled
milage coved
av speed
av MPG

if you want to get oil temp and outside temp it can be done with fitting two new sensors and running some more cables.

aah thanks mate! Ideal! So I can get these sensors and wiring from a scrappy probably? Fingers crossed that I'll get these clocks off ebay - not long to go now ;)

A2 for a 16v speedo i would imagine as it has outside air temp

saying that check em all for reference to make sure mind as it is only a guide

ah ok thanks! :) so do these 4 wires come with the wiper stalk, say if I got it off a GTi in a scrappy? Just need to connect them into the connector block do I? :)

been a whiile since i had mine apart to be honest but i can get a pic the weekend if you need one - only a couple of screws to remove to get at it

i would start with an MFA switch stalk and see what's different wires wise on yours first but i would consider the fact thaty all the info in the mfa is supplied via extra sensors etc round the car

fuel flow
outside temp
oil temp
etc

i would say for sure it's not gonna be a plug in and away job and gonna be a fair few wires etc to add in just for a few options that are not that accurate anyway to be honest

ahh right, I get you! I would like to know the average speed and MPG tbh, not too bothered about anything else... just the things that GTV said would work -

time traveled
milage coved
av speed
av MPG
