EL dials help

Post by Dbo » Wed May 16, 2012 5:43 pm

anybody know how to fit facelift EL dials into a pre-facelift BB1?

wasted my time today taking my dash apart to find my clocks have 2 plugs and the el dials have 3.

i took these dials out of a jdm BB1 and have the converter box and cut the wires off so still have the plugs in place ;)

but not a clue how to fit them and make them work :cry:

any help please!!
