MUNK19 Posted March 23, 2019 Share Posted March 23, 2019 Hello Tekman I would like to change the colour of my instrument cluster aswell. Would u be able to tell me how u did it. I have the MK2 focus Ghia hatchback on a 56 plate. A few things I done to the car I have retrofitted a few bits as well. Today I did the radio conversation to the round type.I also fitted heated leather seats which did not come with my car but the wiring was there because it was a Ghia . Also upgraded alloy wheels and I lowered itAlso the lights Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Hi Wayne Yes I agree air con on mine getting some attention I disabled the switch that turns air con on when you put it to screen made it so I switch it on when I want it on. I have now finished all interior lights and wow it look`s amazing the main window and mirror switch was a bit of a challenge had to bend tabs over on the smd to solder on but works ok Pics dont do it justice Cheers Alan 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MUNK19 Posted April 3, 2019 Share Posted April 3, 2019 Hello Alan Very good job mate. I have made a post on here to see if anyone knows the sizes of the o rings for the two lines that connect to the compressor. But did not get a replay unfortunately. It means a trip to the stealership. If you need the refrigerant removed from the car Kwikfit gave me a good deal you could try them and see how u get on. For sure I will be doing the dash light change but I have a VW Passat and it as the blue lights installed not sure I want both cars with the same colour lights. So I might have to choose another colourRegardsWayne Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tekman Posted April 3, 2019 Author Share Posted April 3, 2019 Hi Wayne Crazy led`s do different colours My son has facelift Red St and all his are red but he got bright white dials which do look good I was think of blue on all switch`s and white on instrument but seeing a blue one made my mind up but its what you like that count`s mate. I dont know size of O rings but will say that Dealership are the best because you get the right rings and you don`t want to get it all built up and try filling it for O ring to pop. but I do admit I re-newed my sunroof rubber seal and it cost me £75 dealer part only wasn`t pleased but needed doing Cheers Alan 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MUNK19 Posted April 3, 2019 Share Posted April 3, 2019 Alan I think that the white leds would be perfect. to be honest I would rather have the white in the Passat and the blue ones in a Ford .I would not even try and mess with the Passat dash lights. That would be asking for trouble . It would not get as far as me filling the ac system to check for leaks. I have a vacuum pump which would tell me if it is sealed before filling it with refrigerant. Thanks for all the advice mate I will keep you updated because I might need your help when doing the dash lights.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
