LEGEND!!!!!!!

The last couple of weeks we have both been traveling a couple of 100 mile round trips to complete my Custom dash conversion. to say his attention to detail, not to mention his epic patience and soldering skills are amazing! Charlies a young chap that has spent alot of time perfecting my dash and all switches. his brother even donated his while needles from his Octy to make mine the way it is.

This is basicly just a big up thread to the boys. My dash looks very nice (not to everyones taste i know) but i told him what i wanted and he pulled it off! See my build thread for more pics.

Thanks again Dark_hero.. if anyone wants any customization of tiny LEDS hes your man! Quality comes and a price tho.... well worth it in my opinion!

heres a little pics of the clocks!

you would have to do your own dash as in our cars the clocks have our immobiliser system. wrong clocks, car will not start. you can how ever get it coded but its long.

Right I get it lol

So I would have to take my car off the road for a while then

How long would it take ya

it took charlie about a week and half to do my bits as he is a busy bunny working his day job as well. hes the man to ask as and when he can do it mate :)

How much would Mr Hero charge for said work????? Would consider the travelling to get brighter clocks, mine are lit by a distant candle at minute.

How long would it take in one hit - just the speedo dials etc the rest in the cab are fine. Price please

looks great gee, im well jell :giggle:

That would be a long old drive Lofty. It took over 6 hours while I was around Gee's to do the dials themselves

its worth it though. Hope he paid you at the electricians standard rate of £75 per hour, callout fee £150. Im guessing £600 should have been his bill

Hmm that wouldd be nice, but I'm far too kind to charge that lol

he lies.. it cos £600 plus vat! :p

They look the nuts, are they hard to do? I do like the green but they do looks bit dim at times!!! What SMds do the clocks take ?
