Just read it, I wouldn't have even known it was there lol, didn't realise there was a site to rate drivers never mind being on it! I remember helping that guy too,he was trying to undo his nuts with one of the little crappy things you with the spare wheel
The minium must be below where it starts though.. As mine was showing negative revs on Idle when I first tried it and the fuel went way below where it sits normally when it was off. Think I might be doing this for a friend though so I'll defo take more care with the needles!
Hmm maybe I could go white with a green display?
Problem with marking the pins is that you will probably move it out of place pulling it out and putting it back in.
Just make sure you take note of which way round the SMDs go before taking them off. I might do a couple of pictures if I do decide...
I'm an amateur and managed to do it so i would say as long as your confident in yourself, enough to take your dials apart and have all the tools required then ide say go for it
The needles are easily visible although I must admit it doesn't look it in the picture, as for it being too bright well it is to be fair but it can be dimmed using dimmer still.
Im thinking I might change it to green though
Just thought I would share this with you guys, been debating if to do this for a long time and trying to decide on the colour, in the end I settled for blue but think I may end up changing it to green, half way through the conversion with the dials done and the climate control, so far its been...
I did mine the other day, one smd wasnt making a connection and all the lights failed to Iight because of this, works fine now :) it's easy and cost pence, only needed the smds, hardest bit was getting the needles back in the right place.
It was a good day, cold though, the hot coffee sorted that though. Can't believe I killed my battery with the radio haha cheers whoever helped bump me off :)
