Had a flickering LED in my MFD display, working one minute off the next so I thought "Right I'm gonna have that fecker"

Fixed the LED and thought, hmm I have some arden blue spray, wet n dry, primer and some turps laying about. While it's off I'll get spraying

I like subtle touches of colour coding, just needs laquer now which I'll do tomorrow, what ya reckon?

Looks ok that. Metallic in the colour has came out nicely. Time to do some more interior bits I think

Cheers mate

Not doing anymore bits, just that small subtle colour coding will do nicely. Well easy to get carried away though and spray everything

Cheers

I Would have used plastic primer if I'd had any I figured since there won't be much flex in it, normal primer will do

I've just cleaned the MFD screen (was all grimy ) and offered it up to the fascia. Should look nice when laquered and re-assembled with my red LEDs

Refitted MFD and sorted the LED:



Happy with the results, just wished I'd left the laquer to harden properly, but just wanted to get it re-fitted

Only thing I find is that, the surrounding plastics let it down
