The simple job of adding a factory option rev counter (tachometer) to a Citroen C1 / Toyota Aygo / Peugeot 107. In this case a rev counter from an Aygo in a breaker's yard to a C1.
The RHD revcounter sits on the other side from the LHD version, we now need someone in europe to get a UK revcounter and add it to their aygo for double revcounter goodness.
Where did you get your rev counter? I haven’t found one for under £95 for that Kit I think it’s a little pricey. Considering I got a rev counter for my Lexus for less then 25 quid.
Man, I didn't know it's that much of a simple plug'n'play job, with the connector already existing! The more I know, the more I love my 107! I'm certainly gonna fit the rev counter to mine then because I like listening to the 1KR-FE when it revs out at 6500rpm, so I want to be able to see it too! Thank you very much for this mini tutorial! 😀 I also didn't happen to know you must have the engine on in order to turn the steering wheel. I mean, this triplet of cars has electric power steering, so this shouldn't be the case, right? 🤔
Teaching my son to drive and having the same problem with lack of engine noise to help with gear changes. Followed your instructions and 15 mins later after cutting the marked portion out - voila we have a Rev counter! Thank you!
Since a few weeks i have a C1 LHD, i life in Holland. In the trunk was a rev counter with a RHD cover. Because the wires with the connector are on de lefthand side in my C1 i need a cover for a LHD C1. Or cut out the original cover but i'am afraid to damage the cover. How easy is it to cut the part out?
This was a common mod with the Aygo because Toyota didn't spec a rev counter on any of their version of the car for a few years so people bought the C1/106 part for them. In an odd twist of fate the new Aygo is by far the most "funky" of the trio now they've all been restyled.
Great video, I have twin daughters who are about to start driving, I'm on the lookout for two of those cars. We'll done, I like that kinda job as well.
Something to point out the standard cover without the cutout has a cutout label behind it so can use that as a template to cut out and for the rev counter to slot between. Did this on my 107 I had and saved money by not getting a cover with the rev counter cutout
Ever since buying and fitting a rev counter to mine the p/s light has come up on the dash I've tried a new "power steering ECU" to see if that would get rid of it, which it did for 10 mins the second I started driving again the fault was back be careful doing this!!!!
Just scrapped my 107 with rev counter and replaced with a C1 without one, oh how i wish i'd seen this video before they took the old car away i would have simply swapped them over aaaarrrgh!
put c1 rev counter on my AYGO very easy to do thanks 4 this vid, my aygo looks cool in side be coz not many aygo,s out there that have rev counter on them
Honestly, up until a few weeks ago, I thought it was standard on all three models (107/Aygo/C1), because my mom's Aygo had it. I noticed it when I parked next to a 107 had the "snail eye" wasn't there.
Listen to the engine yeah but also you can look what speed your doing and the road to determine what gear you should use ... also especially in these cars you can feel how the cars responding .. i dont need a rev counter 😂👌 Good vid tho man
It depends from if you have the Power steering or not. Without Power steering, there is no wire for the rev counter. If your car has Power steering there must be the wire somewhere.
Looking at buying a C1 and was wondering how easy or difficult it would be. Glad you showed how easy it is.
When did peep show get a new season

lol
It would be nice if you could change the design of the RHD version from revs to coolant temp!

It would be like driving round with Mickey Mouse staring up at you though.
Pro tip: you can watch series at Flixzone. Been using them for watching all kinds of movies during the lockdown.
Did this for my son's Aygo. Thanks for the video. Literally a 10 minute job.
What type of screwdriver is this?
my aygo is my first car mine doesn't have a rev counter but i feel like it get you better at listening out for revs overall making you a better driver

these cars are so easy to work on. everything fits together like lego pieces
Very handy, very smart, good job and well done!!!!! Bravo!!! :-)))))
Thank you, an absolutely spot on and friendly guide to this. I've just done mine this evening, so helpful!
The pre-installation is already done for the basic versions, that is, you only need to buy the rev counter and the dashboard? Thank you for 107
Hi where did you buy it ?

How easy is it to cut the part out?
@@nickvlaanderen It was very easy to cut out. It’s clearly marked so just follow the line. I used a very fine sawblade in a jewellers saw.
@@gordonewan144 Ok, thanx for your reaction!

Aygo was comming with rev counter if you were ordering like that, it was an extra such as alouminioum rims, half leather seats...
Thanks for this, just done it myself and it was as easy as you highlighted.
Very Interesting stuff. I'm considering doing the same to my Peugeot 107.
Very Nice. Easy to watch guide. 👍
After reading the comments can i just make sure that i can put a ci rev counter straight into a 107 thanks for your help
Great video, I have twin daughters who are about to start driving, I'm on the lookout for two of those cars. We'll done, I like that kinda job as well.
Easy upgrade - the best kind!
thankyou for inspiration , i just added my REV counter thanks to your inspiration.
Thanks, I watched your video before fitting a rev counter to my daughters Aygo.
Bit of a phaff however, some value in this video. So not an entirely damp squib whatnot. Bravo.
Peace ✌️ out people
Very helpful x
Very helpful just done this to help the bairn pull away and change gear thanks
Thank you for this. It really is as easy as it looks.
So you didn't need to cut into at like you said at the beginning?
Thanks a lot!!!
Thankyou dad, bloody brilliant 😘👍
TH-cam never fails
how does it costs (taho)
Good to know, great little mod.
Im glad mine had it built in already

He did
Thanks for this incredibly useful video!
ive just bought a rev counter, but there is no wire for it to go into why is this, and what do i do?
So uh, did it illuminate at night too? :P
Thanx for this. I got one from a scrap yard for 20 quid and fitted it in half an hour works great and looks cool
Thankyou, I'll be doing same for my lad's Aygo :)

I need help, I have fitting one, but the issue is not working !
Спасибо за видео)
put c1 rev counter on my AYGO very easy to do thanks 4 this vid, my aygo looks cool in side be coz not many aygo,s out there that have rev counter on them

Good vid tho man
Well the gearing is fairly tall, and it does struggle on hills so........
@@rob5944 2nd gear goes up steep hills no problem but yes the gearing is strangely tall and they are hugely under powered on main roads 😂
Good video but... It's a Tachometer.
You are guru mate. Great video.
very Cool!
Yes Simples! Well done. Did it light up in the dark?
No
very helpfull thank you
byd f0 is similar to toyota aygo, citroen c1 and peugeot 107
Brilliant vid.
Car red vw up
I can't find the wire on my 2011 peagout 107??
It depends from if you have the Power steering or not. Without Power steering, there is no wire for the rev counter. If your car has Power steering there must be the wire somewhere.
I was planning on installing a rev counter in the A pillar so it looks kind of like a boost gauge. How easy would that be?
Good vid apart from the terrible camera work :(
Thank you for this video. Will adding rev counter affect insurance as a modification?
just don't declare it. it's so minor and it's standard on newer models. no one would know
I have a solution...sell the car, and invest in an automatic....problem solved.
Colin R automatic is for pussies
Get an auto an become an shit lazy driver ... nahhh i drive one of these with stick an dont need a rev counter either 😂
OMG Fossil Fuel Engine Car - that's a dinosaur ...
Yeah, but a tiny nice dinosaur 🦕 . LOL :-)
