I have just invested (thanks e-bay) in a 6 dial dash to replace my 2 dial dash in my Mk1. I have also managed to get (e-bay) a 6 dial dash fascia, but what i still need is the "connector plug" for the back of the 6 dial dash, no joy on e-bay. Is there anyone out there who has one or knows where i need to look?

Hi mate,

The Capri Mk1 Owners Club might be a good place to start for help or advice........................ http://www.caprimk1ownersclub.com


Matt down at http://www.retrofordinternational.co.uk is another good place to find those unusual spares.

Good luck,
Kev.

Kev,
Thanks for the reply and the recommendations, but i have sourced one from The Capri Forum for £7.50 all in,not bad i thought? However i will follow your idea about contacting the Mk1 owners club for any advice fitting it, which i know will not be straight forward!!
Recognise your car, you were the Surrey Capri Club Chairman up until earlier this year, hope life is treating you well.
Thanks again,
Mark.

Hiya Mark,

All ok here thanks. I was at the Fairmile for the June Surrey Capri Club meet, I was in my silver Y reg 2.8i. All being well, and weather permitting, I'll be along to the July meet in my now Cologne arched Mk1 - so I'll see you then.

Good luck with fitting your 6 pod dash.

See ya soon,
Kev.

Kev,
I was at the Fairmile for the June meet in my 2.0 Ltr Mk.1 Daytona Yellow, but had to leave early, shame i missed you. Unfortunately i am on holiday in France for the July meet and Classic Ford Magazine are covering it!! Bad timing! The club has been a good source of Capri information as well as being an opportunity to make new friends. I arranged for Mark Wilson to do my MOT back in May and i am pleased to say it passed with flying colours.
Shame i will miss you in July, but am sure we will meet up soon.
Mark
