Well i recieved mine yesterday  :smiley: and decided i would get them fitted they are of oem quality but a word of warning!! on looking closely there are NO l/h and r/h turn sybols or main beam either  :angry: so i had to resort to cutting out these from my old foils and get them to fit  :laugh: managed that but not quite happy with the l/h turn and main beam they just need a slight re-position as i'm fussy so will sort at weekend also had to trim were the studded peices go into the cluster cover as mine would not fit together until i had done this!!! have sorted it now but its not what you want to be doing really!!! as for the illumination i came home from work earlier and had the chance to see and yes they are oem quality backlit tbh not bad at all will sort mine better at weekend and post up some pics  :grin: so just to warn you if you order some be prepared to trim them etc!! :cry: other than that i'm happy with mine  :rolleyes:

:afro: no there won't be any need to re-code your cluster  :wink: needles are easy to pull off and replace have a look at the link rich posted on page 2 explains how to remove them and re-fit ans align them its just a case of adjusting them so they read accurately managed to get mine spot on  :wink: :smug:
