IDO Posted February 20, 2007 Share Posted February 20, 2007 I have new dails to put on, but i am also a complete numpty when it comes to anything behind the dash! Is there anyone round the SE/m25/ kent area that could advise/help with getting the buggers on!... I am on the edge of the m25 so can venture to most places quite easily. If anyone can help that would be great, and you will be rewarded (beer vouchers etc) Thanks in advance.. Ian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheefa Posted February 20, 2007 Share Posted February 20, 2007 Hi Ian, I did mine with Hecklers help the other day and it was pretty easy in all fairness. Hardest part was removing the existing pin stops, refitting them properly and then re-attaching the needles in the right places. I can help you out, but I'm a little far away buddy.

AndrewOW Posted February 20, 2007 Share Posted February 20, 2007 If you'd like to them put on by a professional, you won't go wrong with Rebas Systems near Chatham. Their number is: 0845 370 1760. Good luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IDO Posted February 20, 2007 Author Share Posted February 20, 2007 Mini meet to strip Ian's car down??? [sHOCK][/sHOCK] Cheers for the advice guys, was thinking of doing it myself, was worried as sheefa said about correct replacement of pins and dials.. And to be honest i feel a bit of a idiot booking it in to a garage just for something like that when its got to go in in a few weeks for a new bumper ( mine got smashed twice over xmas, while i wasn't there! was brand new in nov'! doh!) but i did think of Rebus (cheers SupasupraGZ).. Dave / monkey i may be giving you a shout.. cheers again fellas.. Is it that bluewater meet tomorrow? ummmmmmmm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IDO Posted February 20, 2007 Author Share Posted February 20, 2007 terawua, thanks mate, was looking for something like that but couldn't find anything? proabably silly like i was looking for dial not gauge or something!.. cheers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terawua Posted February 20, 2007 Share Posted February 20, 2007 no problem, AFAIK you can get the gauges on without removing the needles... my EL ones from miami-GT went on fine. Good luck with it anyway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
