Probably, but I don't think there is a "mileometer version" of the tacho. The indicator warning lights are built into them ...

Maybe, but the mileometer wouldn't have the RH indicator bulb embedded in it. You'd only see the repeater bulb when going left :-) A pic helps:

Thanks for your compliments!

@ Tom: you're right, I've put lots of work (and time and money :mrgreen:) in the 345. But she's worth it. She's not finished though..!
Still going strong :D

Last summer I went to the South of France with the old lady

You did right! I must say it looks like they suit a 300 rather well! Got a pic of the whole car?
