Title: 99 omega dispaly screen
Post by: jimmygixxer on 25 April 2007, 08:23:49

Hi all
New to this forum but looks like your all a helpfull bunch so i was wondering if it is possible to replace my standard display screen (only displays time temp and radio) for one from say an elite with the computer aspect to it, i realise that i would need to get a new stalk with the buttons on it but not sure if the connecters that i have will work on a different screen.  Any Ideas????
