any one know how to get the needles to glow ?
the dont seem to glow so i can just about see them
 
well clock was easy..just got a ph2 clock and changed the bulb (ph3 one has orange filter)
the heater controls was the hard part... i striped off the front (inbeddded orange filter)
spray painted it matt black in using a needle..... inscribed allthe images throught the paint..

when i changed the bulb it was very bright in the centre and you could hardly see the sides.. so i drilled holes in the back and fitted to bulbs in the side instead.. i i might have pics some where.. its a mission to get it out now lol...
lots of work.. but worth it :)
 
do you just pull the center console bits out though? (i.e. clock etc.)

or is it similar to the speedo

sorry to hi-jack the thread guys
 
the clock just levers out... the heater panel you have to take a few screws out. the previous owner on mine broke alot of the plastic so im missing a few screws.. but its quite difficult to twist and maneuver the dials out
