Not that many i think its about 5 of the top of my head but before you do that you are aware that the dials are caked in a green glue type stuff that makes them light green.

i read how to do it somewhere but decided not too it was a pretty involved process where you had to completely strip the dials down quite frankly done that once and it resulted in a new cluster

okay found the link its for indiglo but its the same for leds as well take note of the warning on the top of the page http://www.focushacks.com/index.php?modid=61&ht=IndiGLO odometer hack

I looked into a full interior led change over (a/c switches etc) but i really dont want to shred my car yet again for the sake of something that my mate has already done to his and having seen the results hes got i dont think i will. His lights up like blackpool illuminations at night and tbh thatd just really annoy me when just trying to drive home. Best car for dials are vw's with the blue and red combo's i love that lol
