Cheap method would be to use cooking foil, spread that behind the dials. I've got a couple of other alternatives to fitting two leds in the holders, only thing is that its not as cheap as the regular leds and I don't know how effective it will be. I'll u2u you about it later. You don't have a pic of regular non rev dials do you, I have an idea.

Cobra.... slightly on the same topic... ive asked before about my turd tin dials, you know the side lit ones... and i had wired up 2 leds on wires to the osram bulb holders and stuck them up inside the edge of the dials and the shine well onto the actual dial, but the light is uneven as you can only point them in one direction!

BUT..... I was wondering if you, or anyone else here could think of anyway of me creating a very shiney, reflective surface on the inside of the cover that has the holes the dials sit through so i could shine light more evenly across the whole dial.

I know you can get a cuttable fake mirror type of stuff that you heat with a hair drier and it goes refelective ( I SEEN IT ON CHANGING ROOMS!!!)

Anyone got any ideas???

Fitting dials and fitting leds are totally different things. You don't touch the dials at all when fitting leds, the odds on fooking up any guages is nil.

will do.

cheers

ps what r the odds of fukin up petrol gauges/speedo when you change ova bulbs cos that happened to a mate of mine when puttin lockwood dials on a saxo?!?

Cheque is fine, whatever is easiest for you. Give me a shout when you want some ;)

they sound pretty good. il get back to you soon bout them.

ps how do i go about gettin them cos neva bought ova CS before - cheque etc???

Yes I cover postage costs. These are plug and play leds, no electrical work/knowledge is needed. They simply plug straight in place of the original bulb holders.

that sounds safe cobra. does the price include p+p?

iv done a few mods but havent done anythin electrical except head unit so r ther any instructions??

cheers
