    hey all... as the title says, i have hot spots in my cluster and also heater controls.... is there a way of getting rid of them and making them more evenly spread? also is there a way to make the needles stand out more?.. here is a pic of the cluster

    I have white needles for sale but you need to do some mods to fit them. That looks pretty good imo for them bolbs.

    you could sand the back of the film more evenly, ie; where it's darker

    Unfortunately, unless you pay the money for a Phreddy conversion, your going to have hot spots. You just going to have to live with them. I've got them and after a while you don't notice them.

    Ignition switch is a t5 wedge, headlights are 3x5mm but they need to be soldered to circuit board and little ball bearings may fall outa the switch, you can rewire the heater control ones into their holsters, but there is a few of them. If you pm me your email i can send you a rough guide on doing the a/c ones cuz there a pain. Power switch im not sure off.

    Cheers
