Speedhut issue

Post by samgpr50 »

Hi everyone,

Thanks to Ian on here for donating these dials to me however I seem to have one brighter than the rest. Now the wires were off the one that is brighter could it be that due to age the rest have gone dimmer? I was thinking about another slide type dimmer for the one dial to see if I can even it out. Any ideas? Also can't help but photo whore my clean car.

Apart from promo pics this is the first car I ever saw with perfect speedhut dials. In my experience usually they let all the light out on the edges and aren't cut very cleanly round the dials but yours look spot on. Am just staggered you have a good set there. I just gave up on them after a few returns and wrote them off since, cost me hundreds in the past. looks like you got a good set
