Hello All,

 

I have a set of chrome dash cluster rings to fit so that should be reasonably straight forward. Whilst the cluster is out I would like to do other things as well... The glass/plastic is scratched from a previous careless speedo conversion so I would like to replace that is anyone has one, and also I woudl like to upgrade the leds as they are dull as hell.

 

Could someone please link me to leds that will swap right in to the cluster? I might do the pods at the same time ?...

If you’re going to do an LED conversion, I’d recommend using some LED Strips, such as the ones below, around the edge of the speedo casing. This will ensure that the light is evenly distributed behind the dials and you don’t end up with dark spots.

Groover is your man for LED dash conversions mate....:wink:

 

As for the scratched facia panel, you could try polishing it with a mild cutting compound. I'd recommend Autoglym Paint Renovator - it will gently remove light scratches on the plastic without causing a dull or opaque finish. Toothpaste would also do a reasonable job - then finish with super resin polish. This worked a treat on plastic lamp lenses.
