Default Some early Classic WRX wings (262 silver) and a speedo please!

Due to a lot of rust, my WRX needs have both front wings replaced.
Also, the speedo has stopped working, so it could also do with some new clocks, as when the CEL is on I can only rev up to 4.5k rpm!

Does anyone have a pair of front wings in 262 silver? Ideally, they should be in good condition.

Also, does anyone have a set of cable-driven WRX clocks? My car's been delimited, so the speedo will need to read up to 180.

Please note that my WRX has completed a fair few miles, so although I'm looking for parts that are in good condition, I don't really want to spend a fortune on them! However, I'm willing to pay close to the 'going rate', whatever that is?!

Cheers,

Dave

Thanks for the offer, Bealescooby, but ideally I'm after a clock that goes up to 180:-



Not that I go beyond 112mph that often
200,000+ mileage is not mandatory!

It's a cable-driven speedo. I've checked the connections and all appears to be ok.
A lot of the time, the CEL does not light, and I can rev past 4,500rpm - I don't think this would be possible if there was a problem with the cable?

Oddly, the speedo has worked on a couple of occasions just recently, but only for a minute or two each time, and at fairly low speeds.

I might as well try and see if changing the clocks fixes the problem - a random 4.5k rpm limiter is getting a tad annoying!

Wings are sorted (thanks Jason)

However, I'm still looking for a set of clocks / speedo that go up to 180. Can anyone help?
