    you got these still. How bright are they? Are they better than standard ones?

    Will they fit my 95 Astra Sport?

    How much?

    Sorry for the bloody question time!

    lmao

    I have a set of the Lockwood white dials which don't light up especially well plus they have an orange colouring to them. Anyone tried a set on blue tacos (mmm tacos!) behind one of these? Will they work this this?

    dave your leds arnt blue tachos are they

    if not,the spec of the led needs to be exact,to compare them i e angle and mcd and the forward voltage.(ithink)

    ive got grey dials with red leds(from phil) and tbh at night the dials are bright and distracting id say.the needles are like light sabres.
    good job i dont drive at night or id do summat about it.

    the trip computer needs dismantling and the original bulb holder removing.then solder a led+resistor in its place.
