Well postage would be very cheap, they are only the dials not the whole unit. Make sure they are easy install, ie you dont have to remove the needles to fit them, ask if they are for tip 4/5 speed or manual and make sure you get the right ones for your car. If everything sounds righ they are they are quite easy to fit, I did mine in about 1/2 hour.
Ask some questions, cos $99 is cheap as for a dial replacement and I'm always a bit sceptical about cheap prices for the FTO. A number of people here can advise how to fit.
dstocks, I looked at that site u posted, and I understand that its in pounds.
Ive never shopped on international sites before
So how do u guys pay for your international stuff... Credit card? Paypal? Dont they charge a fee for conversion rates etc? and how safe is it? Shipping time?
So many questions, that I dont have a knowledge of

You can just use your credit card - just multiply the pounds by about 2.4 to get your Aussie value - if you want an exact figure there are currency converters on the net. Most pommy prices include their 17.5% VAT tax, you remove that & add our 10% GST then import duties.
Ive gone paypal for the stuff I have bought. I just ordered a set of the dials listed above this week. Shipping usually takes a while unless the item is small and can be sent air freight. Youre looking at about 8 weeks postage in some cases for items to reach you. Havent had any problems with non delivery yet.
With the tax stuff, nothing ive bought has attracted extra costs other than postage yet. Im not sure if they should have or the costs were included in the price.
It beats the cryptic one pager that comes with the kit.
And some piccies:
NOTE: I also have the brushed aluminium insert in the cluster so without this, looks a little different.
Would have shown a piccy of it in the car, but finished at night so cant see much. If anyone interested (post reply), and ill put up more pictures later.
