got some lockwood white dials yesterday, well pleased....

my gf and cousin tried putting them on, they pulled the needles out of the speedometre and revs...and broke the temp and fuel. I am ok without the temp and fuel for a short while but i need the speed back NOW! any ideas people?? thanks

 

i thought you did not have to take the needles off for the lockwood ones??? oh dear sorry!

 

you were supposed to cut them out, but the speed and revs you ain't.... Don't know what to do?

 

ring lockwood direct. they are in leeds trade under name of Lockwood International IIRC. they may be able to help.

 

Had a nightmare with mine, bust fuel and rev counter wouldn't go back on properly. Had to get a new fuel gauge cos the needles are fixed in and can't be replaced on their own. What is actually wrong with your speedo? Rev counter eventually went back in properly but took me about 50 attempts and about 2 hours of swearing. Seemed to go in ok but then wouldn't work, so had to keep removing it and re-inserting it until it eventually worked (albeit about 200 rpm over what it should but I can live with that)

 

oh b@llocks! How much do they cost for new ones? snapped the fuel and temp metre and rev and speedo still ok.

 

they go in but don't work.

 

Got mine second hand for £15. Think the going rate is about £90 for whole console I'm afraid. I was VERY careful fitting my replacement one.

 

b@llocks!

 

Is it realy that difficult to change the dials?
Wanted to get some for my hubby but is he going to kill me when he'll spends a day trying to fit it it?
