And heres another pic of the dials; all the lights show when lit no problem, There is an obvious diferrence between jim's dials and my own ::)


How did you get to do the back bit silver mate i see you got the metal ring's. I've just got a set off the bay and the guy from german polished one ring on the wrong side he did send me a replacement... and did the same thing again so i've polished the other side myself that's life.

Foliatec spray from helfrauds, theres 2 tins you get, one a clear pre-coat, then you spray the finishing coat. the reason i done that was because I got a glue run when fitting the chrome rings >:(, was the only way to disguise/hide it :y......have fun ;)

With some difficulty; the face is glued to the housing, you have to carefully prise the face of the housing off, ideally with a very small flathead screwdriver a little bit at a time, it will come off :y

I have a set of those LED's but a bit of a pain getting them all to work (well in daylight anyway), thanks to EP.....Decided the dials solve that problem and no need for LEDS. :y

Now living in Stone, a village just outside of Stafford.

I just got an Email back from Heiz, 89 Euros plus 12 Euros P+P, for a set of dials. Where did you get your chrome rings?
