All I did was color the dials with a marker(red Pilot), just the top side, and change LEDs to white. I need to repaint the smaller dials.

This would be interesting 2 know for me 2.
As I am planning to buy a brand new E60, is it possible to do the conversion to the new cluster?
I saw that the speed limiter is working different on LCI cars and the temp.gauge is not the same..
