Lookwood Dial Kit

Featured Replies

evening all i received my look wood dial kit today in the post for the mk7, does anyone know how to get the speedo unit out so i can replace the dial's?? cheers



If it's the same as the Focus , then lift the cover above the steering column , there you should see two Usually T20 hex screws , remove then , drop the steering wheel down and pull on the cluster , it should come out and then un-clip the wiring

Does the cover just lift off?? And cheers thank you

Its the section between the dials and the top trim of the steering , yes it just lifts up. (Not the top of the steering cowling)

ok ill have a go at it tomorrow, how does it lift up so i don't brake it lol

It just sits there you can use your fingers to pull it up, if its the same as the Focus

cheers m8 ill give it a go, does it put up a fight ?? and where do you lift it from ???

The bit of dash trim above the steering wheel below the clocks, pull it directly towards you, that reveals 2 screws you need to take out.

At the top of the clocks, the 'ceiling' in front of your trip computer has a round circle cover that can be levered out with a tiny flat head screwdriver. That's the 3rd screw under there that you need to take out.

Then pull clocks towards you :)
