I need to buy new clocks for an astra h, the car is 2005 astra - 1.6 petrol - auto, if i purchase clocks which are not for an auto, so (manual) will it work?

Sounds silly but no-one on eBay states if the clocks are auto/manual


Thanks.

The clocks will work,but you might have configuration probs which would require the orig pin number for reconfiguring,or swap over the 35080eeprom
Have you priced a new set,vauxall clocks are often quite cheap

there is an extra display in the auto clocks to show the current PRND gear position....so one from a scrapper and get security details etc is one option.

Okey so if i get replacement from auto, then swap m35080 chip should it work fine?
