Haha, nice work. I swear that's going to get right on your nerves after a while!

 

Wouldn't it have taken less than 24 hours to go to Maplin and buy four LEDs though?!

:lol: aye,ive thought about that,gonna stick a switch down near the gear lever or somewhere to turn em on and off :D

 

still gotta whip it all back out yet to clean inside the dials,and stick a little part in that im missing (cheers henny)

 

edit:bcstudent,i thought about it but i didn't know what voltage etc i would need.

and ive been killing time,sat watching my little girl 24/7 while ive been doing this.she's doing ok after a bit of a scare...

shift point now set to 5900rpm,and its not annoying as the first light dosn't come on until around 5k...can adjust them individually anyway so its all good.
