Tachometer/speedo dash light out.........
« on: 30 August 2009, 08:44:11 »
Hi all

One of my dash lights has packed up.

It means the right half of the rev counter and the left half of the speedo are not illuminated....

Any one know if its a big job, may as well replace all of them whilst the job is being done?

Anyone in Nottingham fancy a bit of beer money for doing them?

Cheers in advance, as always much appreciated

Martyn

OK Pete, not being a techie I will have a look at the how to, although I did manage to fit a new glovebox handle last year, and it only took me 2 and a half hours from start to finish.....!!!

Cheers mate
