I have tried John at JDO instruments but they can't do tacho's for cars with CDI units ! Any recommendations Please.

I used him too and was very pleased with the results, service and price. However, both his Instagram page and website seem to have disappeared. Is he still around?

I spoke to Julian Reap after having no reply,s to emails, they don,t do the CDI revcounters either and use Hans Peters in the Nederlands, I contacted him and and have had the repair done returned fitted and working. He also changed the glass and rim so it looks a bit too new but will blend in and at last it's working.
