Seicento dials color

I changed the background lighting in my sei from that dull orange to blue, and i have to say it looks really great, i'm wondering how come i've never seen anyone do that on here...maybe i just missed it...

Anyway, you need 5 SMD LEDs, a soldering iron, a screwdriver and those hex tools, and pretty much like 3 hours if you're doing it the first time.

Pics coming up tomorrow, when i get my camera to work properly

Renman from poland can supply the dials in various different colours

Would that be an allen key

Are you doing the rest, like the lights behind the heater dials etc?
Where did you get the LEDs from?
and is it easy to get wrong?!

Yea, allen key, but english isn't my native language

Didn't change the actual dials, just the LEDs behind the dials, and it looks amazing. Changing the lights behind the heater stuff and the window buttons seems a bit complicated, i'll try and see what it looks like with a LED and a resistor, but i doubt i'll keep it. I've already changed the amber rear foglight and the rear glass heater buttons to blue and the yellow ON indicator to red, looks pretty good.

It's not hard to do, actually if you have a steady hand and a good soldering iron, getting the dials out of the car and dissasembling them will take you more time than the soldering part. There are few places you can go wrong, you'll just need to watch the LED polarity when you solder the new diodes in. They are always marked with a dot or a triangle on one side, so just match that and you'll be good. Again, will post pics tomorrow.

i accidentally made a double post up there, can you delete one of those?

Here are the pics i promised :

wow that looks really smart. wish i had the time to do it to mine!

thanks

It only takes a few hours, you know, not much of a hassle.

Your english is better than alot of native english speakers though!

That does look really really good, I am really comtemplating doing that now!

You want to come do it for me?!?

Haha, thanks I have some english-speaking friends that i chat to a lot, but we never chat about allen keys, wrenches, screwdrivers and so on, so i'm not that good with those terms

Sorry, I'm a bit busy with uni at the moment so i can't come But i can explain how to do it (if anyone wants, i could write a small guide on that with pics), it's not that hard really, everything i've done was changing LEDs. I'm not sure what the LED prices are in the UK, but i'm pretty sure it can't be over 5 eur in total (actually, should be less than that). You'll need some basic tools, a soldering iron and tweezers and a few hours of spare time.

I like the way it looks because it's not over the top, i mean, they have blue speedos and dials in volkswagens and so on, no idea why fiats don't come out of the factory like that.

i wouldnt mind a guide...
cheers
