White Dials

Anyone interested in getting some white dials? I saw there were some advertised on ebay for $50, but it says looking for dealers so group buys major discount! Maybe if we got enough people together on here we could get a discount anyway??

Be carefull. I got them... the revs dont match up on the tacho. it now revs to 11,000rpm apparently.. and mivec is around 8,000rpm. fairly sketchy...

oh ok! well maybe that idea might be out the window!!

Rubbish! If installed properly they are fine... there are hundreds of members using them without issue. Just take care when installing - few new instrument clusters were required after the last group buy

i been looking at the kmc dial stuff 2.

He offered me 125 pound for polished bezel, polished rings and cups and the new dial kits - free shipping

kmc will do u a good deal and their stuff is good. I have the V4 dials, rings and bezzle and its all good.

I decided to take my al. bezel off and see what it looks like...I reckon its much better...here are some before and after pics (sorry that the photos are a bit crap it was taken undercover and as such I couldn't get the lighting right....the "rings only" its much better in normal daylight):

The ones on the Ebay site are different to khunjeng's ones- khunjeng, did you install them yourself no dramas? Do they glow blue like the pic on the ebay link? They look hot khunjeng! Good job.

khunjeng · Post by **khunjeng** » Sat Mar 18, 2006 11:47 pm

it glows the colors on the dials...red glow red, blue is blue etc...looks nice at night.

Easy to install...no drama...but u will need to upgrade your globes...I have a cheap DIY for that. $15 max.

KMC ones are great...I don't know about any other brands.

I take it the standard globes dont work well then? i know with the stock ones the brightness is very ordinary. Any advise on what globes to get and how to replace?

there is a 8 page thread in the DIY section. Go have a look through this first then when u get to the end (below) i decided to just buy globes from autobahn and they worked great...there is a trick to installing them.
