Just saw this on kspec and trying the see what is the difference with my oem cluster

aside from lighting white instead of blue like the rest of the interior, what is it doing?

It has their name on it.

Apart from that, nothing, it is ONLY the gauge face, so lighting and instruments are yours already, can't see that it could do anything else. Not worth the doh IMO.

Well, it's probably got a red, rather than blue, backlight...?

I like the look of it and it would be a good companion to an LED colour change. I still can't get used to the alternating font size used for the speedo and not a fan of the blue backlight either. If pulling the cluster out to do that sort of work it would be nice to have the instruments permanently lit as well.

Nice, but I'm not likely to get around to any of that.

@Pip,
You've probably seen this, but this is the fix for instrument lights on & you don't have to mess with the instrument cluster.

I had forgotten that but after a few reads it looks straightforward enough. Maybe I'll do it... but there are a few more things on my to do list above that.

Speaking of, what's been happening re your larger rear sway bar?

Can we assume you've given up on that?  :undecided:

It's your brother's boyfriend's face which lets you gauge what he's thinking.
