[color=#000000ost_uid0]My EL Dials finally went in this weekend.

was an easy job, *remove the trim to get to the dial cluster. Remove the bulbs. *Slide the new dials over the needles and needle mounts. Wire it up and put the trim back together.

The wires going into the cluster were labelled which was awesome. *THANK YOU MAZDA !!!

For reference, *the illumination wires were :

Red = negative
Red / Black = Positive

which came from the illumination dimmer. *It was the two middle wires in the back of the dimmer. *My dimmer plug went

Black
Red * * * * * * *(-ve)
Red/Black * * *(+ve)
Red/Yellow

( just in case someone wants to know which wires are for illumination :: )

There is also a little control switch that comes from the inverter box. *It lets u further adjust the brightness, and change the color. *Mine go from blue to green.

[color=#000000ost_uid0]*ignores pr1mo*

I'd been in the process of making my own EL dials, but never got around to finishing them. Then I saw this set at a car show in melb a week ago. was $180.

Not sure what the non-sale price would be.

i dunno, frankly i'd still like to make my own and so i could have my own design. but this is a start !!

[color=#000000ost_uid0]Which shop sold them at the car show? Maybe we could organise a group buy if enough people are interested and ask for a "discount"?[/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid1]I'm starting to understand the secret code in Mike's
posts. Interstate Trip = Trips !!! = Hallucinations.
Am now expecting posts about a LSD for the car and
maybe wobbly wheels and problems with bright lights.
Just don't be talking about Coca Cola or special K mate.
That stuff really affects you.
