Technical Question - Dash / Control lights
Does anyone one know how or has anyone replaced their dash lights, heater control lights etc?
Mine have had it and are on there way out and I would like to replace or strap a torch to my head lol.
The "bright" switch also doesnt work, I think this is something to do with a two stage dash light. Either that or it is ment to make the car feel brighter and give me an extra 50bhp...
Can anyone "Shed a little light"

Pretty easy done mate just 8 screws removes the speedo pod and theres only about 6 holding in the ac controls
Your car will have an electronic speedo instead of the cable driven type of the earlier models so refitting isnt the pita it can be with earlier cars.
Im going to be down at cars n stuff all weekend if you want to pop down

Does anyone know how the dash clock is displayed as mine is black.
Does it run from the dash lights or is it a stand alone LCD?
Boss is gettin a bit peeved at me being late for work
