Welcome to installation section for the the AE111 Toyota corrolla

Please note that these instructions consists of 3 sections:

1. Removing your clustar unit

2. Installing the Indiglo Dials

3. Connecting and re-installation of the clustar unit


Before we begin, it is important to know a few things first.
When installing the dials have patience, try and work work with finesse as the clustar internals are delicate, so follow the steps and instructions closely and you will be fine

Try and read through all 3 sections AT LEAST TWICE before even attempting to install, then read it again while installing, pausing and going back etc. as you go along. If you get confused you can simply go back a few steps. In essence the installation is quite simple, nothing to be scared of :-)

Tools required:

  • Rubber gloves, this will ensure that you don’t leave any finger prints on the dial plates in case you touch it.
  • You will need 2 star screwdrivers; 1 small and 1 medium one,
  • Some insulation tape.
  • Lastly you will need a knife and some 2 sided tape to mount the brightness adjuster switch in position
  • You will also need 2 spoons, but we will deal that later in the section.
  • You will also require some patience :-) , try not to rush this. If you find yourself in a hurry then it is best to install it at a later time when you have more time at hand.

Please note the dials in the video might not be exactly the same as yours, but it would be very similar, and the process is exactly the same. So try and understand the process and follow closely.

Attempt the installation after everything makes sense to your understanding of the procedures involved.


1. Removing your clustar unit:

Step1:

Position your steering height to the lowest position, so that the next step is easier

Un-screw the 2 screws located at the top of the plastic unit

 

Then remove the plastic unit as shown in the next 2 pictures

Then unscrew the 3 screws holding the clustar unit in place. The 3 screws are located in the following positions:

top screw

bottom left screw

bottom right screw

Once the screws are removed, proceed to take your clustar out by bringing it out SLIGHTLY in order to reach and unclip the plugs at the back:
Note
, that there are 4 plugs and 1 mounting clip that has to be unclipped. The plugs unclip easily, but the mounting clip is very tightly secure and has to be wiggled out until it is completely out of its socket

Bringing the clustar out slightly

the 4 plugs at the back to be unclipped

The mounting clip that has to be wiggled out and unclipped

Once all that is done, you now have complete access to your clustar unit
