nope, you will have 3 bulbs i think it is that you can change.

how abwt doing it 2 a mk2 saxo desire
the 1 wiv the petrol gauge on the left and collant gauge on the right

all mk2 models are leds., all mk1 models are bulbs i think. its been covered in this thread a few times.

as said there bulbs most likely, they twist and pull out, also you will have to replace the dial faces due to them having a green filter on them, which you cant get off, so its eitehr lockwood dials with some blue bulbs or some plasma dials, theres a group buy on them too :y:

i aksed about the plasma dials, are they a straight swap simple as and will they fit, thing the ones like mine with light changes look a litle takey imo you agree? have green neons in car so if change them to green will i have to remove the green filter

Almost finished my dials execept 1 fukin LED will not work (which knocks 2 others out in the serise)

I've de-soldered it 4 times and used 4 other LEDs and all the other LEDs I've done are fine...I dont know what it cud be and i dont know what to do :S

Plz help

yeah mate plasmas are simple to install, and should go straight in, have you contacted the bloke that does them??

the dials are already green arent they lol

did you not which way they went before you took them out, as they only work one way, the cut off on the corner determines the positive side

you mush have done somethign when soldering the back of the unit and now its blowing motors

have u got the led round the right way?



wow this thread is on 18 pages never thought it would be that much when i first made the guide

well steve its because your so amazing, yueah there green but not very fluresant, there pretty dim if that makes sence? can get a pic if you want?

so what colour are you wanting them??

well the green plasma me thinks if i can afford it, if not a nice green bord so gna get a pic lol of what they look like atm lmao,. woot out in boxers again pmsl @D

well ok ive never checked them in he dark before, never been out at night as not passed test, and the buggers dont fooking work why not? all the lights work other then behind the dials, just hoping that its a loose connection, and not be stupid turned twisted and pulled everything, they come on dont they when i put my lights on?

heres all i coul see, sorry for quality was shaking as i was freezing ma tits of!!!

there is a dimmer switch you know, think its the one on the left if you keep pressing it it will get brighter :y:

im being stupid and shit lazy know but were abouts??? is that all it is then?

well the knob that sticks out to change the time you can press in, could be that mate, probablies a good chance it is, have they always been like that??

well like said never taken her out in dark as i havnt passed, thing is i was going to do this mod and attempted to take dials out but couldnt unplug em, think i may have loosed the conenction? or would that switch them all of?, ryt gona go in2 my car, at nyt, in dar, in boxers, and fidle with little nobs

right im back, had 2 nobs, one was to put milage counter to 0000000000, thats all it would do, the other only did the clock, i twisted, pushed pulled and all it would do is the clock, hoping now i just loosened the connecxtion!!

try the right hand one, you have to have the ignition on or the car started iirc

had egnition on, not started would wake everybody up, will try again 2mo the 2 i found i tried everythign with em and nout happened grr ffs lol

ill check too mate, im surer the engine needs to be started, if it doesnt work then be best to take them out to clean the bulbs or replace them and also clean the dials

the plasma ones hould fit in your car mate, and also you can have them green and also blue
