Is200 Dashboard Lights

[DJ Wozza]

You are still bringing your car Chris ?

You can't back out now :winky:

[VVProtocolVV]

Im up for one, only problem is how difficult is it to install? e.g do i have to take out the complete dash including the needles etc...what do i have to be aware off etc..

I will be doing a walkthrough with lots of pics. Should only take around 20min though.

Cheers, looking forward to it!

Or you want to lend me yours to have them measured up? :P

I could do but my daily drive so would be difficult, unless you wanted to meet up,

take the clocks out, measure then put em straight back in again.

(& I get a little discount on my set for modelling )

i don't think i can measure it up correctly that quickly. its not as easy as you think thou....

i just thought of something, maybe Chris S might be able to help since he works in parts. lol. maybe a quote on the fuel gauge face with autos? and probably the face lift rev counter bit too

[DJ Wozza]

Does this old picture of mine help ?

or this closer cropped pic ?

[WylieCoyote]

I'd definitely be up for one of those kits if they did an auto version.....

If I understand correctly, the standard amber dashboard lights are still working but hidden by these new plates that have their own white lightning system and are translucide where all the warning lights are located ?

yes, thats correct.

It will fit the newer model of IS too, but there are some warning lights icons not matching perfectly, hence newer model is not avaiable yet

As mine is a Continental car, the consumption gauge is not in MPG but in litre/100kms. So installing this kit will convert it to mpg unless I find 10 people in Continental Europe to have a l/100kms gauge designed ?

Yes yemgi, unless again you want to pay a price which is alot higher for a one off.

Sorry for the wait guys.

Here's the install guide, as Snowman said it probably only took us about 45 mins and that was with taking pics too :)

Nice one matey :)

So, are you pleased with them?

[lee_iceman]

Definatly mate, well worth it, as Fargo said, they are a lot easier to install than the LEDs and in my opinion look a lot nicer too :)
