mr_wigster Posted June 16, 2003 Share Posted June 16, 2003 Sounds cool mate. Have wanted to put blue bulbs in my dash for ages, but how do you remove the green filter without damaging anything and without removing the whole world from the car first? Wigster.

damien Posted June 18, 2003 Author Share Posted June 18, 2003 to get the green strip out you have to cut open the white "box" section on the top. all i did, with a sharp knife, was to score a line down one of the longest sides until i cut through it. then i carefully levered it open until it snaps open.if you have more patience repeat on the sides with a knife instead ! then take out the green strip, and carefully glue back down the white box bit. while the dash is out, source 2 LED's and solder them in place of the two bulbs on the clock.( this is what i will be doing at the weekend !!!) hope this was a help to you mate !!

damien Posted June 18, 2003 Author Share Posted June 18, 2003 its sounds fcukin lovely at any speed. seemed really really loud at first but once it settles its ok. its louder when the engine is cold but soon quietens down once warmed up. as for the tail pips, well i had a powerflow chrome jobby so i just got another the same.you need to speak to mark on 01603880060. see the "mod of the moment" bit on the escort start up page !!!!!!!
