Nearly lll the bulbs in my dash have now died so its time for an upgrade i think. I would really like change the colour of the dials and switches too. I have seen these on ebay which i really like but i need the 160mph ones. Does anybody know of anywhere that i can get them?

they look all right but the biggest draw back i can see or should i say cant see is the needles.
you cant see them, there not illuminated like the A4 or the mk4 golf they refer to in the ad.
i know its a small thing but it would do my head in. i like to be able to whats going on at a glance.
as for want 160 versions i am sure i have seen these in maxpower or fast car or some thing like that. check out their websites. they should at least give you a phone number to try.

i saw these as well and thought they looked awesome too, but if i'm right golf speedo's came in 160mph or 120mph, and these are 140? i suppose as long as you had the original bulbs in there as well you'd be able to see the needles but i dont know how it would all work. might have to check out the chav mags for alternatives. :P

wouldnt mind the 120 dials myself :D
-
^^^^^ those are for a mk3, shame :(
-
I asked the seller if he did 160mph dials and he said no. Cant see who would buy the 140mph ones as there is no such thing is there?
-
Some 8vs had 140mph speedos.
-
yeah mine does ???
-
I think mine has, as I've had 120 out of it, and it weren't the last digit.
Mines a H plate proper Big Bumper, does it make any difference if it's the later slightly revised Mk2?
-
the latter models have 140 on the clock instead of 120. think this is because the 8v can do more than 120 well i know mine can anyways.
-
Any info on getting 160mph ones? I guess by adding the 140 ones the speed would be out yes?
-
yer way out some one must do them :S

I have emailed the guy off egay, but he not responeded yet! got to get these, the dials are crap especially in the dark winter months!
