I was thinking about purchasing a coloured dial kit. Thinking about a white dial kit, has anybody got any opinions on the best colour.

Pictures would be great.

I have

White is probably the best to go for unless you've got a colour coded interior like an STI7 in which case match it to that.

Be very careful if fitting yourself, heard lots of horror stories of DIY bodge jobs which resulted in an entire new speedo/dash being needed due to broken needles (I think).

A search should reveal the above as there were quire a few threads IIRC.

With help I managed to fit a set to my old Clio 16v but I'm sure I put the temp needle back wrong so car appeared to be overheating from a cold start

Andy555 > Coloured dials can be good, especially if you go for something a little different. Drop me an email, I might well be able to help
