    Yeah they will be similar to the other ones but hopefully a few other cool features.
    I'll keep you posted.

    Mine will prob be another 6 months as it always takes ages to get the product right with the factory but when they are here they will be very cool as usual.
    let me know when they come in bo i would like a set, are the new ones coming with the s2 badge on them?

    Cheers Bo I have suitable gauges in S2 grey and RS2 white, either 4 off for the main console or 7 off, to include the aux. gauges.

    I used red LEDs for the needles and the autocheck, clock etc. looks much better with the blue dials.

    As for the OP, either your dimmer is not working, all lamps are blown, or you have LEDs all in the wrong way round!

    The lamps that light the needles are available in different wattages, IIRC 1.2 and 1.5. It doesn't sound much of a difference, but its quite a bit when you see it...

    Hmm, didn't realise you could get the autocheck blue, I'll have to go back and do that one.

    I'm thinking it'd be good to swap the bulbs for the needles with red LEDs. I don't like orange and the colour of the needle just filters out any blue light.

    Looks like dimmer if all are not working.

    On mine i have the standard dials and bulbs which are a bit pants, i might try some fresh bulbs see if theres any improvement no doubt the current ones are the originals.

    Plasmas are what i eventually want to fit, are there any decent brighter bulbs available that i can use for the time being?

    My dials are very poorly lit at night, where's the dimmer connections on a 3b S2 ?

    Like the blue dials look good, any info where to buy the parts?

    Looks like the dimmer is not working, there's a couple of small nuts which make the connection to it, have you missed them off when fitting the plasmas?

    Looks like the bulbs that illuminate the needles are either broken or missing, Just take the cluster out and replace them, there is quite a few, the aux ones have one each.

    LEDs are brighter, but only work when they have the correct polarity so trial and error when fitting.

    Also, check that the brightens control knob on the main cluster is not turned all the way down and that all your plugs on the back are connected.


    Cheers.
