Chrome Dial Rings

Hi All,

Didn't like the look of these, so they are up for grabs!

I paid £18 inc post I think on this forum.

Shall we say £15 inc post after another owner?

3 Dial type, diesel or petrol, 97 to 2002 I think. As per photo.

Cheers,

Daniel

Hey up,

I can get my dials out in three parts without removing the steering wheel.

But for ease I would:

1. Disconnect Negative on Battery
2. Leave 30 mins
3. Take out airbag (two star drive screws on your car I think)
4. Remove steering wheel (large star drive nut)
5. Remove dial surround (2 Screws)
6. Remove dials (3 Screws)
7. Remove front plastic cover to dials (Clips)
8. Remove grey plastic section from dials (Clips)

Then I ran a small amount of super glue around the edge of the rings and pushed them into place on the grey plastic section.

You have to be very careful of glue runs. Super Glue Gel may be better I think.

Then put it all back.

To be honest, I have two spare sets of dials. Anything you might damage or ruin, I probably have I can send you FOC.

Cheers,

Daniel
