i think i actualy prefer your old set to tell you the truth.
just the angle..its straight.

I agree the old set does look better. I will run them for a bit and if I dont like them put the other cluster back in. Only takes a few minutes.

How did you get the connectors to fit through the bulb holders? Also how did you reduce the light coming through the gaps from the needle bulbs?

I didnt, they dont fit. U need to cut them and re-solder.

Tape. anyone who has fitted the V3 or V4 KMC dials its the same as the black circles u place on the dials. the instructions might say...dont know cos I didnt read them actually.

Turns out the chimps could well be customs officials...

The package has gone missing in transit & we believe it may be with customs. I've been to all 3 of my surronding post offices today looking for it & no joy.

If anyone knows any fancy ways to find mail, see if you can find the package CP 625 752 081 GB coming from the UK to me.

I'll be making more enquiries tomrrow.

hmm just wondering if the group buy price,, also included the customs fee or gst .. cause anything over AUD 1000$ customs will deffinetly slap a fee ontop.
since there were a number of us buying the thing im sure it would well be over 1000$ for all the dials !!
:(
