I suffered with the crazy speedo & rev counter dials this morning.

I was doing 60mph @ 500rpm in stationary traffic !!!
Then all of a sudden the speedo needle when round to 200mph & back to 60.....

The speedo was fluctuating while driving & was around 15-20mph out as I switched to the digital read out & the rev counter moved very slowly.

This happened with the current milage on the car @ 3,667.

Will it ever happen again ?
Will have to wait & see :)

Hi Mike

I got the lights from Grantwalker Parts in OZ <a href="www.grantwalker.com.au/Home/Home.asp">www.grantwalker.com.au/Home/Home.asp</a>

I delt with a guy called Paul Woods. Paul was very heplful & the lights arrived in about 10-14 days.
The quality is fine but not a touch on standard equipment.
The only thing I did to the lights was fit the indicator bulb from the standard lights & moved the indicators to the top hole instead of the bottom (reverse).

The lights come with a wiring connector/loom that plugs straight into the loom in the car.

They fit very well but they do have a slight "spring" to them where they fit to the wing but nothing to worry about.
There is also a slight gap around the outside of them but as its on a black car it doesn't really show.

I will get pictures of the lights tomorrow for you.
If you leave me an email address I will send them over for you or maybe someone could post them up on here for me.

Ps I will also give the email address for paul & the make of lights.
I found them on Ebay but didn't deal through Ebay.
These are the ones I have got <a href="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/VT-VX-VZ-Commodore-Monaro-Performance-Tail-Lights_W0QQitemZ4572623802QQcategoryZ29700QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem">http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/VT-VX-VZ-Commodore-Monaro-Performance-Tail-Lights_W0QQitemZ4572623802QQcategoryZ29700QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem</a>
