no. I'm 99% sure that soft dash is electronic speedo etc. If you were to get a transducer as well, you could probably make it fit, but its too much hassle IMHO, as they have all different warning lights, and therefore wiring. Just drive off your tacho, if you can't be bothered to replace the angle drive... Or grab an angle drive out of someones wreck.

Do all rangies have the same Right angled drive?

Or did this change through the models / boxes?

I think all the cable driven speedo's had the same. I have a spare one but I am saving that for when my existing one breaks.
Thanks,

Adam

They are the same except the later ones 85 on, screw on with 2 screws as opposed to the large knurled nut of the early type. the knob and bracket simply interchange
