Hi guys, glad to see this group buy get off the ground. when I ordered my set I told lockwood there would be a market and considered doing the same as Mr Fen.
Now to the fitting of them. The speedo is easy as the back of the clock unscrews, but the other two dont. For these you will have to open the bezel with a very small screwdriver, about the size of a craft or watch makers flat blade. Do a little bit at a time and wrap a couple of layers of plastic tape around the base of the housing to protect it from the srewdriver when you're levering the bezel up. When you've gone all around, then use a slightly larger blade to open the bezel more and keep working your way round until it is fully opened. You may need to lever the bezel off but be very careful as it is possible to crack the glass as I found to my cost. (had to buy another rev counter just for the glass)
To fasten back in I found the best way, was to start with some pliers to ease back the bezel edges (making sure you protect the glass and outer rim with some cloth padding. Once you have got the bezel bent over enough put the unit face down on a solid surface (again with some padding) and use a small diameter drift too gently tap the bezel back into place.
Unless you are master craftsman the finished result will not be perfect but a spray with satin black paint will help and when fitted back into the surround can not be seen anyway.
Just take your time and be gentle.
Hope this helps.

Hi Mr Fen,
we are really sorry for the delay with your order. We had to order in some material to produce the dials on but we have now started production and the dials will be leaving us at the end of this week.

Once again sorry for the delay.

I had a phone call on Monday from the manufacturers to say they had been posted, I haven't received anything myself yet. I have chased them up this morning to get a tracking number or courier details and they are going to call me back. Sorry for the delay.
