Wanted: Glow dials and Dial rings

Postby StewyD32 » Mon Aug 02, 2010 4:32 pm

As the title says. PM me if you have any for sale. Please and thanks :wink:

Was thinking of white dials, blue leds and steel outline rings or a whole steel plate
or show us a pic of yours as there are so many variations out there and don't know which ones to get, and don't know which ones to get.

I bought the car with these fitted.

But changed to these KMC ones.

As for the rings... search for "Dial rings", Jay on here made them up before.
You never know, he might have a set left. They're a great addition.

The second set were made by KMC (he's a member on here but not been around for a while). I tried getting a set before but with no success. KMC said he might look at doing another batch in the future, but I don't think he ever did. :(

It's worth sending a PM anyway, you never know...
As for the other dials, I don't have any spares I'm afraid.

Chances are it's either a loose wire or your inverter that's gone, there's a related thread around somewhere.
You should be able to pick up an inverter from ebay for small money, I think Seb might have bought one before.

Can someone do up a thread of what is needed to do up the dials.
I couldn't take out the unit, do I need to take of the Dash?

A friend of mine owns an ebay shop, I helped him develop some dial rings for the FTO.

Shop Link - http://stores.ebay.co.uk/THE-TUNING-SHOP

Available in Polished or Brushed finish.



I'm sure he'd be happy to supply the FTO-Ireland club shop too :smt003

One other thing before you order !

Not only does he sell 2 different finishes, he sells 2 different types of dial rings !
One is a half depth ring, which covers halfway (cheaper),
the other is an extra deep ring, which covers the whole depth of the ring.
Pics may expalin better.......

Half Depth Rings...

Comparison of both types...
