Hey guys, quick question. Is there anyway I could change the Trip thing on the dash to a later model Magna one? One that tells the time ect.. Is it as simple as just unplugging the old one and plugging the new one in?

As above, not as simple as plug and play.

The old system, where the mechanical speedo works with the central trip meter display was replaced by a digital readout speedo in later models which incorporated the trip meter. The central display was then down graded to being a simple clock.
No idea what looms, etc need changing to make the changeover, if it is at all possible to do. Smarter brains than mine need to address that.
