Great idea👍 just bought some for £3.99. For scion 03-07 and Tacoma. Thanks for this. Think I’m gonna paint the clear inside bit red to make the night lighting better😉
Dad Diaries I’ll just use some red touch up paint real thin and the light should still shine through👍 just to match my stereo lighting. I’d just like to say a few of your videos have helped me with my car. I too replaced my radiator and brakes, using your videos as a guide and they helped a great deal👍 so thanks for those. I look forward to your manifold video too as I plan on wrapping mine too😉
Hello, I ordered this accessory for a Toyota MR2 MKIII, but the knobs are too small. You see the light that goes from the edges ... How is it possible? Thank you.
Hi... I'm not sure. Did you order them via the link in the video or another source. There is two sizes. One which is slightly thinner in diameter and guides the problem you describe. That's why I linked the ones I bought.
Well very true but pretty annoying. Don't k ow why they changed them. Took me a while to find the right size. I do take a caliper size of the ones I have in the video so you could ask a perspective seller if they are the same.
I just got an MR2 in my hands and i was looking to change those dials, but the biggest diameter i was able to find was 40mm. Anyone that changed to that size, do they look ok or do they look weird?
If the diameter is smaller than stock they will look weird as you'll have a gap between the edge of the knob and the inner cut hole of the receiver for the knob fitment.
Can you put a link in with the Toyota part, or link to where you purchased them? If it's there, my apoligies, I didn't see it. I was really pleased with the Audi armrest i installed after watching your video. Please keep them coming. Thank you so much.
Hi Julie, thank you for your kind words and I'm glad you find my content useful :) I did have a link to the ones I have but then apparently the supplier changed them to slightly smaller ones so I removed it as these don't look right in my opinion. The ones I bought were for a Mazda, just check the diameter with the seller first. Aliexpress and ebay are a good bet to find them :)
Dad Diaries ok thank you good to know!!but i have a little problem.all the knobs that have dimensions are all smaller 37 not 40 like yours!i think I will contact seller
Chris mcclelland yeah I think you have buddy. The insert centre is a different pattern to the MR2 one. You could try and trim back the plastic outer edge at the back and some off the spindle but I don't know if they will actually fit the spindle anyway.....still only 2.95 so not too bad.. I've put a link to the ones I bought in the description :) that's the thing with modding sometimes...bit of trial and error 👍
Ordered some.. can't wait to Change these. Thanks again for the guides on the MR2
Awesome! Glad you are finding them useful :)
Nice little mod. Reminds me of the stick on chrome stuff you can get for the MX5. Surprisingly good!
Makes it look so much better!!
I agree :)
Been looking to do this for a while, thanks for the post
No problem... check you get the right diameter ones...some are smaller and dont look as good 👍

Cool. Are you going to use a red clear coat so the light still shines through?

@@DadDiaries i brought same one from link and there small
Sorry to hear that, the sell has changed their supplier I guess. I'll take the link out.
@@DadDiaries owell not like there cost a bomb. Might try a different one on eBay try my luck

Damn I bought the wrong size. 36.7mm. It looked like the same one as yours in the pictures. I ordered Scion xB knobs.
Ahh man I'm sorry to hear that. Getting the right size seems to be so hit and miss from some sellers!!!
@@DadDiaries oh well. It works lol
Looks good!
+Anthony Yarde I'm really pleased with them :)

Thanks, ordered! ^_^
+KatsushikaMatsumoto you're welcome :)
Anyone got a link for the correct size? I cant seem to find them
Did you find it? :D
Well what specific model does this fit? Mine is a 90 mr2 which only has 1 knob
Mk3 Roadster /Spyder :)
Hey..knobs was from Mazda or Toyota??
They are for a Mazda :) check the diameter though with the seller you choose, some come up smaller and don't look right.
Dad Diaries ok thank you good to know!!but i have a little problem.all the knobs that have dimensions are all smaller 37 not 40 like yours!i think I will contact seller
Yep contact the seller and get the right size...they'll look.much better 👍
Much better, the factory ones look like they are off a cooker.
Lol you're not wrong there haha
Do you know where I can get these from?
I bought mine back in the day from aliexpress.com but check the diameter with the seller :)
perfect
thanks Marco
