you could just bend the tabs on the top of the sled (the ones with the bumps on them) down a bit so that they hold the empeg tighter. You can probably even do that without having to take the sled our of the dash.

Not a bad idea but I'd sooner just install the proper Mk2a sled.

The Mk.2 and Mk.2A sleds are identical, except the Mk.2 version is stainless and the 2A version is mild (zinc anodised) steel.

I am new to the BBS forums! So, i hope this message works.

My question is regarding the dimmer fix movie. My unit sometimes dims, and then sometimes is bright again. Is this the problem we are talking about here?

Thanks!

Please read through the FAQ first. The FAQ is at www.riocar.org , and the specific entry about the dimmer is here.

As you are new to BBS forums, I would recommend that you read through the entire FAQ, and then "lurk" for a while (read messages but do not reply). After you've got the feel for it, then post your questions or comments.

Dang! That prompted me to look for Tony's first post, but the oldest I could find was from 27/12/99 09:38 PM... and he is already listed as an old hand!

What's up with screen burn?

I lurked for a week or so before I signed up with a username and made my first post.

I did, however, spout off on the mailing list right away.
