    Have been collecting bits over the last few weeks, so i thought it was time i got them fitted.

    Picked these up from Ebay, after Scott. I had blues ones fitted first but they where crap at lighting up the clocks (you couldn't read the trip/miles)
    I re fitted normal bulbs, but they are sooooooooooo sh*te it was unreal. Gave a really dirty coloured light. So these new ones are ment to be ultra mega hid xenon white:rolleyes:



    Came from... Came in two days too and very well priced.


    Crap lights on pic, i'll get a better one...



    When i got my new steering wheel the center bit was a silver thing, it wasn't pretty. So for a temp fix i painted it in a met black, but it really needed to be a satin black. So off it comes..




    Wanted to repaint the bolts to match too, did the dash screws as well to clean them up.




    Nice and warm to dry...



    Pete linked me to a seller on Ebay, selling gear gaiters... Very well priced so i fired them an email and that could do the colourers i wanted so i order one at 8pm thru night. It came lunch time Friday.. That's good services!

    Black leather with white sticking to match my seats..





    More soon.

    Nice stuff mate.

    I always though about completely re-doing the clocks with some of those ultra bright LED's as im sure everyone will agree the original lights are dog do.

    Nice one Benn, yeah it's hard to get a clear pic of them, it took me a while to get mine to show how they did in the pic i took, but as i know what the blues are like then i know them whites must be dam bright in real time etc, might get some for the mk1.

    I'll try again with my proper camera, they give a nice clean white light which is what i want. The leds them selfs are super bright, its just the way they are placed which makes them a bit dimmer. But these white ones are much much better that the std bulbs.

    Heres mine, like i said never had any trouble reading anything on there!



    Only trouble I even had with them is one of the bulbs were a bit dodgy and needed to be poked back in. Always able to read them ok and with the white on yours should be ok to read. Still personal preference I guess.
    Thumbs up!! :D
