Hi,
I am thinking about fitting white dials in my polo. Has anyone got any pics of them in a polo? Would mind seeing what they look like at night too. Also are they easy to fit and whats the quality like? Thinking Lockwood jobbies.
Cheers
Sam.

Since your driving a 1998 Polo I think your dials are more likley to be like Spot_On_Jon's rather than like mine which are shown in the other picture.
The guide should be the same though. Just dismantle, scan the metal plates, use photoshop or whatever to mess with the colours, print on quality paper, mount, reinstall dials.
Guide is here if you want more info:

As mines is post 98, do you think if i just cut the template and switch the dials round, they will still go in and look ok?
Edit: obv that wont work stupid me.
Can someone blow up that lockwood set above?

If there is interest theres a post 98 set of dials in a scrapyard about 2 miles away from my house so I could pop down and nick it?
