While on this subject...does anyone know the best way (easiest) to separate the clear cover to the black surround on this item?

it looks like the clear plastic clips onto the black piece, like the NB's.

I believe on the NBs it the two simply clicks in, but on the NAs (well mine anyway) they are glued.

Sell you my KG works for cheap?

did you end up picking up a meter hood as well? Factory ones are fairly cheap, but they are not shiny. Given your rimz I know how you like shiny sh*t. hahahaha

Chnaging the instrument lights as well? Since you will have the dash open? Not sure if we should wait and do a dodgy.

Lol yes i think we need to wait for a dodgy day Karl had a crack at changing it this afternoon and didn't snap any clips

but i couldn't remove the cluster to change it as the speedo cable was attached and didn't want to yank it

But i did install my new BD Rollbar

sweet! Good thing you don't have a hard top.

You wil need a towel to go between the plastic window and the base of the BD. Otherwise they will rub, and metal > plastic

Nice one Melv.

The quantity of chrome is meant to be going down not up

Sorry I had to make a jibe at chrome somewhere.

It will look great on the SSR's. Maybe we can start our own SSR club LOL.

The car is coming along nicely.
