Tacho removal
Hi all,
Having undergone a change of employment I really need to get the tacho removed from my 110. I contacted the firm who fitted it, and the figure they quoted to remove it made my eyes water - considering I would sell it on, there wouldn't be a lot of change left from selling it and then paying for the removal.

Does anyone know a reasonable south-midlandsish based firm who would do the work for a realistic fee? Indeed, is there anyone on here who could do the work, or indeed might be interested in buying a digital tacho themselves, with fitting kit for a Defender?

Thanks. 2011 110 USW

why not just leave it in there, have you packed in being self employed ?

Kinda, I certainly don't need it in the Landrover anymore and could do with unlocking some of the money tied up in it. 2011 110 USW

Rygors in North Swindon are tacho specialists - easy to get to

It cost me £1500 to have it fitted, I realise I won't get all of that back...
I think there is a connection to the speedo drive, I have the original speedo drive to return the vehicle to standard. Iknow the had the dash out, but I didn't see them install it so don't know exactly how it was done. Sadly Swindon is even further from me than Mudie-Bond in Oxford.

PM me?
