Check out this thread with instructions for the 451. It's much easier than the 450.

yea, that's the one. but it looks like the pods are attached on the same bracket. i wonder if you could cut off the clock and not affect the wiring since it's in the same connector.

I think true, you can just install one stalk...... but you must buy the set as they are on a common base... To just install one, you will have to slice off the one you do not want installed

If just a tach in needed I personally think many of the summit or jeggs supplied ones can be found that accept 3 cylinder input and better looking less expensive

I ordered the gages but think I will gut the clock for something like a multi gage for temps/pressures

I might retro fit a Isspro/VDO/Stewart or what ever real RPM gage... the Smart version is just boring is why

now where or where is the boost and egt going to fit? grin

Meaux...Hmmmm, didn't know they were 07's. Why would Penske be fooling around with 07's....or was it Penske???? I'm so confused - lol. Saw my first Smart on the road today so I won't be the first in my neighborhood. For all we know, it might sell like the Omni..'.got in one in a parking lot and tried to start it before I realized (oops) it wasn't mine.

sharonlee...dont worry...that wont happen...but...

Funny thing- I live in a small town (people who were born here consider it a city), about 33000 people, I am from Chicago**anyway, on this forum, I found another smart reservation holder from my town. It turns out she lives a couple of blocks away. Who would have thunk it??

I bet it will not be too long before someone comes up with an otion that you can swap the clock out for similar to the scanguage in the 450's. Just my guess.
