They're a bit blinding at night is the only problem with them, but they do look the part
Good luck with your test btw. Just don't make any silly mistakes and you'll be fine.

Currently September the 13th, but I'm gonna try and get another cancellation or two. I'm gonna have to do pass+ as I can't afford to insure mine. I hope to be on the road by October (having completed the test and pass+).

It could be quite a long process to get some of those dials. You have to change your clocks (assuming you don't have a GT?). Then make yourself some dial faces in white (template somewhere in this forum), paint the needles, and change the bulbs, or filter to get different colours. But its well worth it if you go for it.

I feel somewhat alone with my old C reg here
I did those dials myself.. they're not hard to do, you just need a bit of patience, but it's worth it

If you decide to do it, let me know and I'll see if I can lend a hand. Shouldn't take more than a few hours, if everything goes to plan, that is

Btw, I'm thinking of going down a bit of a different route with the dials and make some purple faces for them.. just a bit of individuality, and it'll match the colour scheme I've started in the interior

Oh yeah.. you might have a point there

Mind you, seeing as I seem to be the only one ever to post in the mk2 forum, I like to venture out from time to time
