any help is appreciated,did a search but returned to do with diesels

thanks

Not sure where the rev counter gets it's signal so you might find that not working

 

[LEE69]

Or do what i did and buy them and swap the white faces to your dials you have in the car now

 

[hoggy90]

ha erm.....anyone else?

hmm can you elaborate lee im not 100% what you mean lol

 

[splitpin]

I think he means just fit the dial faces to your existing clocks

Spot on.

 

[hoggy90]

the dial faces?yeah thats what im buying...its the white dials straight out a cupra lol....or am i getting confused

 

[LEE69]

You can remove your needles and them off the new clocks, and swap the faces over, then put the needles back on.

 

[hoggy90]

aww i get you!lol yeah thats what i meant mate sorry haha im getting a garage to do it anyway so surely they'll know what their doing?
how much you think they'll charge?

 

[LEE69]

Hell, you can change them yourself mate!!

 

[hoggy90]

i would lee but the weather is still really dodgy up here and i dont have a big enough garage to get the car in plus doors open so would just be easier to give it to them?

 

[LEE69]

You can do it all inside the car with the doors shut

 

[hoggy90]

lol i dont trust myself with stuff like that though if i broke something id have to pay to get it fixed ha...just safer this way imo

 

[LEE69]

Be an hour tops, air bag light might need extinguishing if the clocks are removed from the car.

I take it the Cupra dial mat is from a diesel Cupra and has the same Rev range and max mph as your own? Like Lee says it should be straight forward other than getting the needles back on/off accurately. However there have been some horror stories of late so maybe not a bad idea to stick it in the garage. Of course, you could always go for custom dials

any recommendation on where to get custom ones done mate that you know can be trusted?cause' i have a feeling the cupra dials i was going to buy are from a petrol lol

I think If they're for the petrol version they won't be any use for your diesel.

I got mines done by Skewer for my Toledo V5 and I am really happy with them.
Get in touch with Mook at Skewer, he's really helpful and can advise you all the
different options you can get.

PS Don't touch the flea bay ones!!!
