No bruce. Big font is most definitely "not" screaming, otherwise why would there be the provision to use a "large" font, which is what I was using?

You may have noticed that there's also a "huge" font option, so I guess by your calculation, the people using that would be screaming through a megaphone.

Mate, some people aren't blessed with 20/20 vision, and I would include myself in that group, so I use that size font for our benefit. I'm sorry that you feel the need to complain about something so trivial, but I guess you're not going to please everyone.

Cheers, Wayne.

The 3kph difference will help to avoid speeding fines and is negligible enough to not worry about spending the 45 odd dollars on the jaycar corrector module.
If you were close to the northern rivers area i could lend a hand installing and dialling the module in for you though. It basically mounts in line with the signal wire to your speedo and allows you to alter the sensor's output reference. CHEERS MATE. :wink:

Thanks 3gress.

I really appreciate your comment and kind offer.

I do get up that way every now and then, but no date set in stone.

Cheers mate.

Wayne.

NBs afaik, use an electronic sender so you're in luck.
Jaycar sell an electronic speedo corrector thingy for abut $45au.

By the way. The other day I was following a semi and it threw a rock up and disintegrated my right hand fog light lens. Would you know of anyone that has one they could sell me. I only need the glass if possible.

Thanks again mate. I appreciate your help.

Cheers, Wayne.

Just noticed this bit.

I think I have a pair of NB8B foglamps in the garage, one has broken mount clips but the other is fine.
Both lenses are fine as well.

If you want them send me a message, if they are in my garage still you can have them for the cost of postage.

That'd be great mate.
I'll send you a personal message along with my postal address.
Get back to me with the P&H costs with your bank details and I'll pay you immediately.
Thanks again so much. I really appreciate this.
Cheers, Wayne.
