you have put them on over the needles?

Hi Guys,

I have put them on on tuesday night and after picking them up of Daryl at 11pm (sorry for the lateness dude) and finished by 1:15am.

they are awesome.

Yes yo uhave to slip them THROUGH the needles and then press the entire el dial down to slide under the needle to allow the bum end of the needle to fit through.

Also, i took the power off the cigerette lighter, black on the black, and red off the red/blue going to the light AROUND the lighter.

One thing i have noticed though, is that i cannot see the bluddy needles at night. are they supposed to light up or something? i have to look for the black shadow to see what speed i am doing and also, i cant see the needles forf the fuel, temp and oil gauges.... help?

C,mon guys someone post a picture of them, i havent recieved mine yet as i live away so i need to see them to keep my excitedness, will definately be staying home tommorow to get them.

Alright people!

Here are my images taken just now after rerouting the cabling so that the bulbs are back in.

I found that the needles were way too dark, especially when there were no street lights!

I have found that there are holes on the back of the dash cluster for holding cabling against it. I removed the connectors from the leads and thread the cables through these holes, then connected the connectors (?) and was still able to use the bulbs for the needles.

Hope you all have success the first time... !

Oops, sorry guys, the last 2 shots are really crap. Still learning how to effectively take a photograph with the right camera settings for night mode etc.

The main bright ones were with 0.7sec exposure... the last, i have no idea.

    • Hey keep the ideas coming, I'm always keen on projects! But, problem fixed!  I got a cheapie ozito scope from Bunnings and had a good look in and around the bearing and sensor hole. I couldn't see a smoking gun but the bearing looked a bit strange, especially when comparing with a new one. I thought the cover had come off the bearing magnets.  Sorry for pics of a screen, I didn't have an SD card.     Good thing I had the old one to inspect. So, given I'm like a pit crew with wheel bearings and luckily I had a spare bearing because I f**ked up my parts order, I decided to just smash it out. Got the old one out in about an hour. So much easier when the parts haven't had a chance to rust together yet. 😂 And, well, found the problem.    In the second pic at about the 8 o'clock position, you'll see what I think is the tip of the old sensor.  The new sensor has definitely been rubbing but it's all intact, just a little shiny so I'm hoping it's fine.  The car brakes perfectly now and no errors.  I think the job took about 2.5h in the end. 👍🏻 I really appreciate the help in here as usual. Thanks guys.
    • I was only looking because I saw some drops on the ground but it wasn't alot. Recently had it serviced will ask the mech to confirm. Find it strange that it looks standard though, can see in another photo of a random box 
    • So...not sure if you know if that has always been there or why you went looking. It could be old damage from a clutch explosion, or even just the gearbox got dropped somewhere along the line. Basically, you should seal it up to stop oil and dust getting into the bellhousing, but it doesn't matter too much and is not structural. I'd suggest something like a glob of JB Weld. BTW what gearbox oil are you running, I would guess the breather has been spewing it everywhere.
    • Hey Duncan thanks for your reply. Sorry mate I know the photos are shit.  Took another photo for reference. Seems the casing does have a hole in it looking on the net, fluid seeping out. Added a photo   
    • Very hard to make out what you mean, is it the squarish hole with redline shockproof (probably) under it? Is that pic from on top of the engine with the firewall to the left of pic and engine to the right? Either way, spray the area liberally with degreaser and try again, maybe circle the part you are worried about
