Default Dash light dimmer switch?????

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.d...sPageName=WDVW

I have NEVER seen one of these on either a S1 RST or an RS1600i before.... Didn't even know they had em - mine ain't......

Actually very surprised you'd need one as the illumination is soooooooo uttery SHITE on the mk3 clocks why the hell would you want to turn it down????????????????????????

Why's that Gus? Still to dark with it on max? Where would it be located on the dash - only place I can think of is the round blanking plate on the left of the steering column, but I thought that was the choke on lesser models

I hate the mk3 dash lights - can't see fuck all

I tired white dials in my last one hopping they might catch the light a bit more but no luck

your going the same way as i went


basically audioimage have replaced all the normal light with ultra bright blue leds


i dont drive the car much at night so everytime i turn them on its like, o yeah cool


should think if you know what your doing its quite cheap to do aswell


give them a ring once they done mine they went a bit mad and done loads of them for me mates
