Guest mercurysteve Guests Posted 14/11/05 12:22 AM Share Posted 14/11/05 12:22 AM Ditto Vince, they look great and I have the genuine housing also, but still to get the gauges. Mate, can you let me know how hard they were to fit? Did the housing need any modifying? Also, if you don't mind, could you please pm me brand/size/pricing details also?

I think they look a lot nicer than the factory Phoon ones, at least they have numbers on them! RegardsM G Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
