jip those to missfits originated from here...

sorry to say..but every country has them just in a different form...you boys got the librals up north...and mexicans down south!

regarding botswana..yes sadly its true about the aids but the upside of it its the most powerfull economy in the whole of africa, cause its being run by laws and goverment that is factual and not racist.

South Africa is the ONLY country in the world that the MAJORITY ruled goverment is implementing economical sanctions and legislation along with taxes against the minoritybased on RACE!

I PREFER TO LET YOU RATHER MENTION THIS AS THE ONLY THING YOU KNOW ABOUT SA....yip this was born and bred here...

Like I said, I'm pretty sure Miata Roadster has what you need. I'm not sure if Bill will ship to south africa though.

It is an aftermarket electronic speedometer sensor, made by AutoMeter. It is designed to allow you to install an AutoMeter electronic speedometer into a vehicle using a Ford transmission which was originally equipped with a mechanical speedometer gear.

Hi Guys ..

sorted the speedo and project almost finished just a few snags left one of which I do not know the answer, luckily I know a from with lots of helpfull folks whom will help me get the Pommie Jeep up and running!

Just to refresh the memory I installed a BP into the Pommie and need help sorting the temp sensor fot the instrument cluster, I need a single point or connector sensor in order to work with the Pommie wiring and cluster.

From what I understand the OEM miata sensor uses a 1/8NPT thread and I cant seem to find a single point or connector sensor that uses this thread....however I have come upon this, and I would like to know if you guys think it wil fit into the BP engine or not.

COOLANT TEMP SENSOR ADAPTOR FITTING (FOR DASH CLUSTER) - K-Phonix

Sorry for the english as its not my mother tongue and we only familiar with metric sizes as we IN THE DARKEST AFRICA are not connected with the rest of the world and dont have the luxury of mouse click parts.



Thanks and appreciate all the help guys!
