The white dials are available from visual-performance auto styling accessories

there are 2 type`s "Turbo" lights & "non Turbo" lights

got rid of it cos i got this one.........

[noney82]

like the new one, are you modding that one too? so would i get the turbo ones seen as i own the 2.2 turbo? does the it light up when the turbo kicks in? were they easy to fit and are they mot passable

sorry to ask so many questions

If you don`t already have the orange & green Turbo lights on your rev counter then you need the "Non-Turbo" dials...

Fairly easy to fit,need to remove the dash(there is a tutorial for it somewhere).

never had any problems with an M.O.T

PS welcome to the forum

This is my first Lucida 2.2 and my first post. How would you tackle an oil change without wasting the reservoir oil.

[Bob3D]

By the "reservoir oil" I presume that you mean the oil in the top up bottle under the bonnet?

If so, then simply don't worry about it! When you drain the sump and change the filter the oil in the top up bottle is unaffected.

However, assuming your top up system is working correctly, it makes some sense to put in a little less oil than is needed and then let the top up system make up the difference, finally filling the top up bottle when the precess is finished.

This way you avoid the problem of a slightly overfilled sump causing the oil level light from flashing...
