Hi guys, i'm new member fro italy and i speak english not very well.. so gently can tell me the specs of smd led of dashboard because i want to sobstitute the original with new blu led but i don't know the specification of the leds (voltage,amperes.etc.. etc..)
Thanks! Martyns

what year saxo do you have??

Hi
I really want to do mine. I have a 1.1 forte and not sure whether the dials are a filter or not. How do i tell with out taking it out or can't i? If they are where can i get new dials from?

Cheers

is it a mk1 or a mk2, the mk1s use bulbs not leds so u cant do the mk1s but u can do the mk2s, if u have a mk1 u can get plasma dials from matrix racing and there is antoehr company but for got the web address

citoen told me to get new clocks bout 6 months ago wish id seen this b4 i fitted the new clocks wudav done cuz i sprayed the black surround silver it aint very hard to take the unit apart its dropping the steering wheel to get them out og the car is the hardest part
jus dont snap the plastis clips they can be brittle

i have some led for my dials.but i have read all that and iam not doing it .looks too compliacted to me lol

its easy mate honestly :y:

get some spare dials to practice on first, just take your time soldering them and use some paper to mark which way the led goes

orite.i thought you would just have to take off the thing and put a a bulb in lol

have you checked yours is actually leds and not bulbs??

there them

gt a 1.1saxo. P reg.1996

ahhh so led bulbs right :y:

basically you will have to buy some dial faces as the standard ones have a green filter on them which wont come off, steve has tryed and failed, so the only thing you can do is get some lockwood dials or plasma ones

where do u get them and how much?

is there anywhere else i could have them in car?

well you could try getting some mk2 dials to fit, but think there a different shape and you may have to trim them to fit

lockwood dials from http://www.directcarparts.co.uk/buy-...2193_2195.html

and plasma dials from www.visual-performance.co.uk

well expensive

is anyone doing this at the mo, i got a bit cocky and forgot the write down the way the leds went, and need to be told which way they go

yeah, i got as far as taking the wheel off, and couldnt because i didnt have an extension for the 1/2" ratchet!!! ill pm you with a pic mate.

you have red leds in the centre, these are for the needs, would it be possilbe to put other colour, such as white or purple? or do they need to be red?

the needles themselves are red though so it wouldn't show up.
