The half moon shaped symbol strip for the cluster of indication lights on the dash does nt line up with the actual lights! It must be a replacement since its actually a little smaller than the profile left by the old one on the dash. I guess there must have been a small variation in pitch distance between lights on the developpment of the S1 through to S2? Does anyone know where I could get hold of a correct fitting strip?
Thanks

Thanks for all the posts. Things make a little more sense now! So it seems I have the original decal strip but no perspex cover!
A couple of great alternatives in the replies.

Hello everyone once more! Well I m happy to report that the new perspex cover is in place with new lamps with chrome surrounds. I decided to use the smoked perspex as a base and drill the lamps through (pic to follow). While I was removing the old lamps I noticed there were a 'few loose wires' behind the dash! 2 pairs to be exact. Since i understand some of these lamps never worked from factory (?) could someone please give me a list of what lamps they have functioning on their S1? I may then be able to fathom out what the spare pairs do!
Cheers.

Thank you everyone. Things clearer now. I'm glad Richard mentioned the two brake light lights ... thought I had a short circuit unit of some kind!
