Hi, does or can anyone give me a quick run down on how to fit/remove the instrument cluster from my 855 t5.

HAve bought some v70 ph1 160mph clocks, i know i have to take the top of the dash off but where are the screw's and clips located?

Any help much appreciated.

Why do you need 160 mph clocks for your car surely 140mph ones would suffice lol

Doh... oh well guess you will be degreasing the engine bay tomorrow then, Jizzer is Good.

I always worry about those bloomin clips, i put a tie's round mine just in case.

I'm needing a new rad soon so will also be doing the clips to.

Don't get me wrong guys but like Liam said the flames only come from the exhaust after 4-5 secs of me coming off the go pedal completey. There is no shadow of a doubt that mercs car goes very well but he couldnt get passed me till I let him! (by coming off the throttle)

Sod Avon, any race track any time...
