I think they look really nice, I will buy a set and fit them when I get time. Think they bring the clocks right up to date without looking aftermarket/cheap. One of the few accessories that aren't genuine LR that I like :thumb:

It does look nice...but it doesn't really go with the rest of the truck. It's a little too modern.

I like the wood surround on the special models better. (Rhino, westminster, etc...)

I have those trims on my 96 RR.

Just a nice "different" touch

Different Folks - Different Strokes I suppose?

I have the factory/dealer wood surround on my guages. If they fit it sure would tie in the chrome with the rest of the wood work

Well, I finally bought those trim rings and thought I would show some afters. I really think it turned out as a classy addition and picks up the other chrome accents throughout the truck well.

FYI...for anyone that removes their binnacle, there is no need to disconnect the battery, just make sure the key is removed. I read some mixed information on this and wanted to share.

Yeah I like these and want a set but cant get em here so ......gonna have to import or try and make them up.
Am I right in saying they are made from aluminium, will look swell as I have the 21 piece wood trim including clock wood trim, anything to make it all look nicer is a bonus with me

Yes they are polished aluminium, but i think it would be quite difficult to make them without a die or unless you have access to a well equipped machine shop.

Does anyone have a picture w/ a wood surround? Can it be had w/ the green facia ala later model binnacles?

Also, it was mentioned in an earlier post that the battery doesn't have to be disconnected. I believe it has to be unplugged, because you have to disconnect the SRS multiplug.

You do not have to disconnect the battery, but DO NOT switch the ignition on or start the car with the SRS plug unplugged or you will throw up a Fault which I believe will have to be clearead using T4, Rovacom or similar.
