It's not going as planned rhys. Basically not worth modifying so waiting on a quote to get a new one built up.

Hi Scott,
What are the instruments in the main binnacle in the pictures above? Are they after market ones, I presume? The lighting in my standard ones in my RS is so crap I can't read the gauges at all. Circuit card must be stuffed.
Cheers,
Len

hello Len,
 
it was a standard non tacho cluster.  i cut it out and fitted an aftermarket tacho and blue LED's behind.  still has standard temp/fuel guage ans speedo.  i will be fitting a gps speedo soon though
 
the other 3 gauges are drift crystal, they came with the car and i actually hate them. not easy to read at all.  im running stack gauges in the track car and they are excellent, although quite pricey 
 
this is the tacho 

 
and the stack gauges with saas tacho

 
 
cheers
