They can look good.... probably best to leave the chrome rings off tho :)

Just for the record, i was never thinking about fitting them, just wondered if they were acceptable or not. Honest!

Quality m8,,say no more

1 of the first things i done was to change those dials and get away from the lazy orange glow the orignal dials had :(

Got mine with the M-badge on..also have the M-badge check light.. winkeye,massive improvement and allways have good comments when i got the blue thang going on with the stereo too...

look forward to seeing the extra dials in there too soon which will be indigo...everyone changes parts inside to make it look better,most have changed the steering wheel,especialy the gear nob so why not change the dials...Tis all good imo

was going to go the silver ring route too but didnt have anything else silver so thought better of it..the boost and oil gauges will have silver rings on em so i might do it afterall
