How would you see the numbers on the LCD if the background is white? I don't think you can - the blue is a very light shade of blue.

The LCD will be blue if you use white SMDs as the LCD as a blue hue to it anyway.

All PLCC-2 then I can't remember how many you'll need, call it 10 to be safe. 2 SMD for each REV and ODOMETER 1 SMD for each TEMP and FUEL 4 SMD for the LCD ?? Think that's correct, best bet it pulling the dials out is dismantle to check first, also I put white SMDs in so the needles colour can...

This'll be dependant on the year on your car. If it has a digital center or dials for fuel and engine temp. They'll either be all 3528 PLCC-2 SMD, or 3528 PLCC-4 SMD aswell as.

They're transparent so the colour you paint the back is the colour they'll look like in the sunlight or at night being lit by the LEDs in the dashboard

Yeah if you have any haha or paint samples from Halfrauds or the like...

Yeah, a soldering iron with a fine tip, needle-nose pliers/tweezers and some patience.

Scrape any paint on the back of the needles then paint your desired colour, OP states this in first post.

Thankfully it's not my car I hijacked the picture from some other thread.

Moral of the story, fit spacers and you're in business and you won't fubar the bearings etc.

Yeah the bearing is pressed into the disc. Same difference haha.

Yes it's so the disc sits flat against the spacer thus adding longevity to your bearing.

Yes, you want the flat face of the spacer facing outwards.

It's pretty good at the rear only needed 1° shim. I'm running 195/50 - so no stretch whatsoever. The fronts are fine I don't exactly want the flush look. It's a good setup and purposeful for a daily.

I got both sides from a Facebook group Renault Partsdirect, which was run by Paul Earnshaw I dealt directly with him through fb. I won't need spacers on the rear once/if you convert to discs [emoji16].
