    So I’ve recently purchased a T595 995i Daytona, it’s custom, cafe racer style. I’m currently rebuilding the front end as it had an extremely badly made fairing bracket that rattled the speedo to bits! I’m wondering if I can swap the old (1999) manual speedometer, with a new gen digital one, and retain all the same functionality?? (And yes I know I’ll need to swap the manual tacho cable for a digital magnet based one)
    Of course it’ll need wiring in correctly, but is there a best route to go down, as in, Will a 1050 tiger speedo work, or a 675 Daytona etc?
    Thanks in advance
