I finally bought myself an FTO!
Love this car.

Just one question though, is it difficult to replace the backlights behind the vac/oil gauges? (This isn't likely to be a fuse, is it.. nothing else is affected.)
Yup i'm a total noob.

Thanks. ;)

I have never heard of lights blowing in those, AFAIK they are LED's. I would check fuses for a start. There is a DIY on here somewhere for removing the housings etc that hold them.

WTTC and yes they are fused start there or the power wire to them maybe earthing out..

I had this prob long time ago so just changed them to oil pressure and temp gauges

Welcome to the club ... I had to read your name a couple of times ... I really thought it said Twawt ...

Anyway ... Yeah, not sure about the problem ... Is it a stock or aftermarket gauge

Thanks :]

Is it a stock or aftermarket gauge

It looks like they're both stock (mits logos).
Had a quick look at the fuses and they seem alright. Might have a more thorough look at fuses soon, and i guess when i get some time i'll try taking the centre surround off.

I have the oil one ... It is a sh*tty yellow light ... Mine didn't light up as there was something wrong with how it was installed... I corrected the wiring problem, and disconnected it as it looked fugly ...
