Waow, both questions in the 2 following replies. Now thats good service!
Might have to part with some notes for my own soldering iron, cant wait to see the needles pred :y: My dads got 2 citreon dispatches amongst his fleet, i think they have orange needles :P What ever happened to the lad who could make the rev needle change colour as it progressed round the dial? I'll try find the link! EDIT: Link - Rev Needle changes colour |
Got my led's this morning, could not beleive how small they were.
Will be giving this a shot soon, gota pop out to get some solder firstly though. Got a electronics soldering iron, so its got a really thin pencil-like tip. Hope all goes to plan, taking the laptop with me incase i need to refer back to the tutorial. |
In town today so might nip into maplins and get some LED's looks awesome!

So to remove the dash do you have to take the steering wheel off?
Just it seems that way, cause there are for screws you need to access. 2 At the top and 2 at the bottom? Anyone |

disconect one of the battery terminals from under the bonnet, next go into the car and at the rear of the center console on the floor the airbag control unit is hidden behind a bit of carpet, pull the bit of carpet back and disconnect the big orrange plug undo the 2 torx screw holding the air bag on remove the steering wheel bolt and steering wheel remove the airbag spiral contact unit and then the indicators stalk unit behind it now u can get to all 4 screws of the plastic surrand thing finally undo the 3 remaining bolts behind this holding the dials in adn disconect the two wires at the back |
