Speedo perspex face Puma County 90
Puma 90 County 2007

Hi everybody, hope someone can advise or point me in a direction.

I have a 2007 Puma 90 County and the perspex face over the speedo and rev counter started to crack some months ago, its now half way up the face and growing every day, I have looked around for a replacment but nobody seems to just stock the face, all I have seen is a complete new speedo housing which is not cheap, does anybody know where I can get a replacement perspex front from?

Regards

Ole Dave[/b]

Have a look out for a speedo binnacle from a Discovery 3 - I'm fairly confident that the plastic face is the same (although the clocks are different...) My blog - www.anacreinhampshire.blogspot.co.uk

The cluster was also used in a Freelander.

See here for a replacement: eBay Item No. 221292076704 http://defender90xs.blogspot.co.uk/

I just replaced my instrument cluster faceplate from a KPH to MPH last night. Removing the needles were a little challenging. You have to twist/spin the needle/pointers to loosen them from the pivots. I was able to put it all back together and all is working well.

Spartan. Can you elaborate on this swap. I also need to change from km per hour to mile per hour. I bought a whole new instrument cluster but I couldn't get it programmed. Did you buy just the face or a whole cluster and just used the face?

I had a MPH complete cluster and removed the face from it. I used the MPH face on the KPH cluster. I did not use any tools because I was afraid to damage the pointers. I took the cluster apart to the board level then removed the face and did the swap. The pointers did not want to come off without first twisting them. Make sure you remember where you started before twisting the pointers. ( otherwise the accuracy of the gauge will be off).
