Odometer question:

i understand you need an odometer, but wonder what the rules are?

ive had a car where it broke, had to change the cluster and get a mechanic to write out a thing for it.

if I was to use a motor cycle one what would I need to do?

changing gearbox Witch means changing from mech cable to electronic. Was thinking of feeding it to the link ecu then feeding a motorcycle cluster from the ecu using pwm outputs. And set it up on the bench to get it to read the same as the factory one?

Seatbelts?

I've googled but end up with complicated tables of rules I don't understand.

I was under the impression that pre 1972??? You don't need rear seatbelts if the vehicle never came with them?

Is this right? Or kind of right?

It depends on when it was first registered in NZ:

- before 1 January 1991 -> No rears required

- between 1 January 1991 to 31 March 2002 -> Rears required

- after 1 April 2002 -> No rears required

Shit hot! Just carjamed it and first registration was 22 May 1964...sweet!!!

I'd want belts in the rear

A) for back seat passenger safety

and just as importantly

B.) for the front seat passenger safety.

Guess that would mean cert time, but worthwhile IMO.

Can't remember the date but yup, if they weren't fitted from factory they don't need them.

If however the car is being re-registered, you'll need to fit them.

So if a car did not have rear seat belts from factory but is de-registered, it would require rear seat belts to be installed for re-vin?

Those are very good reasons. I just work on the theory that accidents happen to other people and not me...so I should be sweet as:)
