Instrument cluster
« on: August 04, 2012, 09:08:04 AM »
Hi guys, I am just wondering has anyone changed the lighting in their instrument cluster, I have trouble in bright light try to see it. Maybe just old farts trouble.
Cheers  :blk13 >:()

There's a US supplier of white LCD displays.  You might find it with "Google, your friend".
We all have the same problem.  Fortunately, the critical items, Fuel and Temp, are the visible ones.
The clock is so bad I have a watch glued to my panel.
The subject is thoroughly canvassed in the US STOC site.

I see their speedo corrector is cheaper than the Healtech one, and looks to be just as good.

Does anybody know anywhere that will do this lighting mod in Australia. Melbourne would be even better. I am nearly sick of the sub standard instrument illumination.
Thanks...Tony

After a 10 days of no reply, I guess the answer is no. Its a bit of a specialised field.
