Looks good, do you have a picture of the mounting moulding before you fitted it? Or a link to who ever supply it?

i made the gauge holder myself.. use two small pieces of 2 inch pipe, cut the corners out of the origanl dash surround and glued and moulded the pipes in... had to experiment with mixing paint to get as close to original dash colour as possible.. but happy with the way it turned out

next project is a rear view camera and screen

Ok still need a picture without the steering wheel in the way ;)
You may have a few orders coming your way.

I agree with grey van man about the lamp colour though as they should be green but I can see you tried to match up with the radio but then I would swap those lamps inside for green LEDS, assuming the radio is out of warranty. Actually go for it whole hog and swap the lot for Blue LEDS.

re.. color change

Postby jamiedq » Fri Dec 22, 2006 4:14 pm

the gauges are multi colour i can change them to 7 different colours and the radio changes to what ever colour i want it to.. just had them set to red that day when i took the pic.. took me about 10 hours to make the surround.. might make up another few if i get time...


has anyone tried to change dash lights to blue. in a mk6
