LordGrover Posted June 28, 2011 Share Posted June 28, 2011 Another: No idea whether they're any good, and they look expensive to me, but I quite like the look of these rear lights... Click Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Walbertonio Posted June 28, 2011 Share Posted June 28, 2011 Quite like the dials mind - maybe a little busy, but definitely more interesting than OEM. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jumping350 Posted June 28, 2011 Share Posted June 28, 2011 those dials look nice but also look like a needle snapping incident Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LordGrover Posted June 28, 2011 Share Posted June 28, 2011 I've ordered a set of dials. I can barely be trusted with a plastic spork unsupervised. Any idea who I should get to fit them? They'll take a few weeks to come over from US. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The instructions aren't detailed: "Remove the gauge cluster from the vehicle/dash". FFS. I've downloaded the service manual and it says the air bag system must be disconnected first. This sounds as though it may be a bigger job than I bargained for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LordGrover Posted July 7, 2011 Share Posted July 7, 2011 Excellent - thank you. In the meantime, I'd tracked down a pdf with similar info. I've popped a copy on dropbox if anyone's interested: Click to download. Thanks to Jun Tanaka. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Husky Posted July 7, 2011 Share Posted July 7, 2011 If you wanted to travel to the West midlands near rugby I could fit them for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coldel Posted July 7, 2011 Author Share Posted July 7, 2011 If I had bought them I would travel to the north pole to get them fitted, it was scary looking through that thread taking the dashboard to pieces and calibrating the needles Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LordGrover Posted August 6, 2011 Share Posted August 6, 2011 I've ordered a set of dials. I can barely be trusted with a plastic spork unsupervised. Any idea who I should get to fit them? They'll take a few weeks to come over from US. Let me know too? Ive had a set for 3 month n stillhavnt got them fitted! Hmmm. Husky had a proper go at fitting these today, but I asked him to forget it and return to normal. A couple of things; 1. it whines like a bastard, 2. there is either no hole or a massive hole for the revs indicator light, 3. some of the wording/symbols is wrong for UK spec - eg it says BRAKES instead of the brake symbol, 4. way more fiddly than you'd think. I've decided to go for Husky's 'own' version. i.e. one he recommends and fits, and has done so successfully many times. It's more expensive and not as fancy but it fits and works. Looking forward to it. One last word; Husky is an experienced and very patient perfectionist - I'd definitely recommend him. Nice one mate.

Ricey Posted August 6, 2011 Share Posted August 6, 2011 I think Husky's own description of himself was 'If I can't do something perfect then I just can't be bothered with it' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
