Well I finally installed my Dub Design Industries (DDI) dials last night.
They look very smooth and it gives a great, modern dash look.

They arnt that hard to install. You just need a little patience lol.

The illuminated dials pic that I have posted doesnt do them justice. Crap camera. Check out www.dubdesignindustries.com for a good pic of the illuminated.

Very happy with the end result. They use an inverter which, when working, give a high pitch eeeeee'. A little annoying. Will sorce some sound detoning sheets or something. Other than that, no complaints. I recommend em'.

heres a link on whats involved in installing them.. PDF file.

They look hot. I want them.

I was looking at something like this:

Although yours look cleaner. A nice clean black, although it's just more and more black into my car... I keep thinking a nice set of white dials would look great, but yours... nice.

Wow - they do look quite snazzy. Could you change them to a blue light if you wished?

I love my dash - it's so pretty for a stock one.

Haha cheers, hopefully the Mk3 will be sitting like that by the Flat Four Show ;)

The first pic didn't load for me at first... the reverse effect on the odometer looks sick.

No. They are only white. There arnt any globes that light it up from behind. its all in the dials. I dont know how it works.
