Post by monkeywithaplan »

In short, no, they aren't compatible.

Frigging nightmare. Its just a good thing I'm off, lol.

The sooner I'm able to get this blade and have something reliable and new where everything isn't broken unless I break it the better,

If you have some lying about nc30 clocks can be made to work, you need to open up the tacho and swap the guts of the rvf tacho into the VFR case.

It's the lugs that are broken, not the gubbins inside :(

Yeah so take the gubbings out of the rvf clocks with the broken lugs and bin what's left, fit gubbings into VFR clocks and you have a set of clocks that work on a rvf. Or am I getting the wrong end ofthe stick here?

I get you now. Well, as long as the mounting lugs line up, then I can't see why not, but the issue you might have is the lights bracket.
