Exclamation Porsche gauges, newb question

Hi guys,

my first post on here & I'm affraid it's a question, I've been lurking in the background for a month or two since I got my first beetle but the urge to attack it is getting to much for me now.

I fancy installing some Porsche guages (as you do) into my '70 1200 & have found somewhere with where they have a few different ones at a pretty good price.

First up is a 1983 924 speedo, would I be able to fit this into my beetle or is it the wrong kind of connection.

Next is a set of 914 gaues, the speedo (a few scratches in the glass), rev counter he says it's faulty, I hope it's actually ok, fuel gauge (has a bent bulb holder) & the 3 gauges from the center console, clock,temp & volts. Would these gauges connec/work ok?

Finally a 911sc oil temp/pressure gauge, again same question.

Ideally I want the rev counter for the middle with the speedo on one side & the dual oil gauge on the other, then I can fit some smaller vdo gauges for volts, cylinder head temp & fuel under the dash somewhere.

All answers greatfully taken onboard & the quicker I get them the quicker I can start to blow my already tight budget. I really fancy getting some gauges while I know they're about as I don't tend to see to many appear here in Scotland.

Cheers

Ally
