Hi mate.
Had a look at your ambient gauge on the bay.
It seems to have a smiths sender witch would make it between 82-85 86.
I might be wrong and usually am. Maybe some of the experts might know better.
Cheers Mark.

What's the part number on the box? That's definitely not a VDO sender which is black and square-ish. I'd take a guess and say it's a Smiths gauge too (83 & 84 model years)
Cheers

Hi Tom,
the number is very faded but appears to be part number ( 284706-9)
Cheers Jason

Ebay will indeed decide.
Id be disapointed with less that £15 if I was selling it.
Ive given VDO ones away mind.

I hate being right.
Thats a bit of a mean finish for sure.
"Low end estimate" as they say on Bargain Hunt.
