There's possibilty that photo will be enough to do the changes, but if you're able to make a scan that'd be great. As for 60mm gauges, please provide me some photos of those as well, Id like to check if there's a place for connectors, so they could be lit up as well.

AndrewOW Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 My new dials are on their way, will post pictures when they are fitted if no one else has in the meantime. The company tells me that they are happy to offer a discount to club members. I've received a set for my car today, and I was wondering if you had a chance to fit yours yet? I've already got a set of blown Elglo's sitting in there, and I wondered if the connections were the same, as I had to solder the input wires to the stock gauge 'circuit board'? There is a connected stabiliser plug as well, and I wondered if that goes somewhere convenient too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndrewOW Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 Has anyone put them in then? Pics? I'm going to attempt installation this afternoon. I'll keep you posted, and some pics too, which will have to wait until it gets dark. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt H Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 Sounds good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob W Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 Yea I've fitted them. Just solder the pos and neg on the circuit board of you stock clocks. Don't do anything with the stabiliser just tape the end up. When sticking the little black box somewhere, it does make a slight "cherp" when on so I put mine at the back of the dash. They are really easy to fit, you won't have any problems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndrewOW Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 I had the same reply from MoMan on Facebook, so I'll definitely sort this out this afternoon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndrewOW Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 I've gone for the simplest reversed out version (blue on black), so it's like seeing the stock dials during the day, and indiglo at night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ashbuster Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 (edited) when i received mine one wire was off each of the dials and then both wires were off on one dial. not a problem for some people but when you pay out £150 you dont expect to have to send them back to them to be fixed. couldnt do it myself because i suck at soldering and wasnt going to attempt to do it myself paid someone to do it for me so all sorted now but 4 wires from 6 not soldered on properly ?? BUT... the dials are very good and designed just how i asked. and they do offer to fix any problems but so i can have them in the car quicker i paid someone to sort them. they look good at night and i went with a design from another car altered to work on the facelift supra Edited May 24, 2012 by ashbuster (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sideexitsupra Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 Hey Ash, Where are the pictures then? Please, please, please get some up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndrewOW Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 Well, I've got them on and they are working fine. I'll just wait for it to get dark and take a couple of photos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ashbuster Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 hey guys, no photos taken yet, my dash panels have been sent into a place to be sprayed because they kept reacting when i tried it at home even tho i used a plastic primer. the garage have had the panels for over a week and still not done they say it keeps reacting. i really need the panels back so if they are not done by tomorrow i think i will have to go and pick them up and take them somewhere else. i dont want to leave my car like this all wires and switches left hanging. ill post photos when there done. the design might not be to everyones taste but i like it and it looks good at night.
