time for a little up date..
first off, i picked up a set of 3.45 gears on friday night..
so in the next week or so the car goes for a ratio change and new bearings..

also if you remember when i first fitted the arf,boost gauges ect.. i used bulb dye on the cluster globes to make the cluster light up red like the gauges.. well 12 months later the dye had turned brown and the cluster was starting to light up brown rather than red..lol..

so today i picked up a xg s pack cluster which lights up white rather than orange like the ea/ed ones..
as the xg cluster had 220,000 odd kms and the odometer didnt work.compared to my 114,000kms
so i dismantled the clusters and fitted the xg facia to the ed cluster..
now it lights up white... :D

a comparison pic.
xg on top and ed on bottom

Cool update man. Interesting about the clusters. I was playing with mine last night, had to swap over a good working odometer into mine, as it was stuffed. Had me thinking about modding the cluster...

Cheers

I take it because they are utes & van's there isn't that many S pack clusters, most would have been GLI/Taxi spec yeah?

I might have to keep my eyes peeled for a XG S pack cluster myself now. :D

Ive seen 2 ! Unfortunately i was looking for an XH at that time !

Also in the stock XG Falcons do they use Yellow or White Bulbs even when the cluster is clear ?
