Hi All
14. Mar 2008 at 03:41
 
Hi all

Just joined - finally found a club where I can get info about my car.

I have a 99 S reg omega 2.5TD Elite with a manual gearbox.

I will post pics as soon as I can but for the time being I have upgraded it with MV6 alloys, s/s back section exhaust with twin exit pipe and custom LED blue/red LED dash conversion with LED's in the door pins and brake lights connected to the alarm.

Solid car, very comfortable and also economical.

I'm just looking to upgrade the alloys again, possibly onto some 18's so if any of you peeps know of some, please let me know.

I have got some pics of the best bits for me of my car. Have a look:

Speedo:
...

computer display:
...

climate control and stereo:
...

...

steering wheel controls for stereo:
...

You get the idea, I have loads more of LED's in the air vents, window switches, door pockets and sunroof controls. Hope you like. Sorry about the pic quality but was using my old camera phone.

Everyone has said mine are too bright, I usually have them in the middle of the dimmer and not distracted by the lights, the rear window switches are bad for the rear passengers so I have them switched off from the front as the face directly at the persons head when sat in the rear, the other lights aren't bad.

Welcome Smiley

Not a fan of the LEDs myself, partly as they are not hugely effective imho, but also because I bloody hate the current fascination with ultrabright blue LEDs.

It would be boring if we were all the same though, as we'd all be double glazing salemens driving a crap BMW 3 series Grin
