Is it possible to buy a set of chrome dial rings for the speedo clocks, etc?
i bought a set a while back for my Golf which made the dash look a lot better but i can't find any for the A4 (2000 model TSport)

cheers

yeah they go on ebay all the time. It requires you to take your instrument cluster apart a little though. It's pretty easy.

Cheers - i did this on my mk4 golf gti and on my 325ci which made a lot of difference (well we look at the dash a lot of the time don't we) - been looking on ebay for the last couple of days but cant find any now - typical :eek:

I've just ordered a set of these - http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1,1&item=7973168599&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWA%3AIT - $51 posted :)

Does anyone know how to take the dash clocks out?

Ha - would you belive it they've arrived today [sm=groupwave.gif] - the insides of the bezels (the bit that'll be on show) aren't exactly finished properly (a bit rough) - i'll have a go with the Autosols before i fit them at the weekend

well took the gauge apart today to fit the rings and the're too big so they wont sit in the holes. I could cut the holes out a bit but i thought not to in case i make a mess

does anyone know where i can buy a proper set of chrome or alloy ones?
