Very true, both revolutions and 'lites are overdone now mine came with the revo's so not gonna knock em

Get Turbos definately! Or a set of MIMs

MIMs?

I don't know which MIM wheels he is meaning, but I love the MIM Juventus.. I don't know if they come in 4x100 though, would look good on a 300-series. Very popular on bigger Volvos. Though those are getting harder to find because those are not manufactured anymore. Some pics

My GLT is no longer a "five-dial"...notice..on the second pic..the econometer needle "rests" in the wrong position...but..after a swift test-drive, I just build the lot out...removed the needle..put it in the right position and now the dash is complete, many thanks to "tigersport" for providing me with the econometer!

Usually if the needle rests in the wrong place, the gauge is damaged. The needle should sit roughly where it used to when the engine is idling. If not, it's probably wrong. Perhaps you're not too worried about that

Well...yes..but according to pics from other gauges, the needle should rest in the red area, and after having adjusted the needle pos, the gauge works properly, the readings look like I remember them from my old 360. When the engine idles, the needle is in the pos seen on the pic. Hmm..interesting..

That sounds right Risto. Engine off, gauge in the red, idle is around "10'oclock" well, that line pictured.

Some of the gauges we've seen have been covered in oil (I bet mine is at the moment, the amount my 1.7 is throwing about the breathers ) Foggy and Hugh have both rescued some, I've not tried it yet, but yours doesn't seem to need it!
