Motorware does custom EL dials installation, so they might able to help you.

They are located at 3 Prestige Drive, Clayton South, Ph: 9558 1656

it shouldnt be much - if its just a wire, just call them?

but clayton isnt far from box hill.... i live in box hill/blackburn and motorware is only 15-20 mins away.

Alternately there are a few car places in box hill as well.. station st.
WHo did you get the dials from? I would call them.

Well labor are never cheap, so expect to pay up to $100. You can always ring around, but most place i'm aware of use contractors & don't have a clue what a FTO is or been working on one.

BTW Mil, Motorware isn't that bad, they were the only that one can get a set of EL dials for FTO 3yrs ago. Which where Mikey, Scracy & I got ours from, cost us $500 per set back then, all you guys are lucky these days, there are lot more FTO products availible now then before. And also they do supply accessories to other shop like Cyber Century.

yeah, the only ones available now is the v3 type which i think looks sensational. It has a more modern touch to it. I still like my ones and comparing to the EL Dials they look WAY better.
Kev, Im sorry that u had to pay $500 for a set but at least u can say u were one of the first that had them :P :wink:
Plus, those wankers from JR Racing in Box Hill are the worst customer service peeps ever! Myself and others have been there and they wont even give u the time and day to enquire about anything! And yes, they are associated with Motorware :? :evil:

I think JR racing has either closed, moved or turned into JR auto. ITs definately not in the same place it used to be.

I agree Mil, JR racing made me feel very uncomfortable everytime I went in there (but the guy at motorware was very nice the one time i went).

JR auto have been great in terms of service the few times I have been there but now its a panel beater etc and not the shop that JR racing was.. (if the two are associated).
