Great stuff mate, thanks
Looks pretty straight forward even if I'm not the biggest fan of soldering ribbons.

Lcd displays can be done with a steady hand.
Dis needs a hot air soldering station to be done with any degree of success

I'm failing miserably to find any supplier selling replacement screens.
Good thing that clusters can be bought from abroad from as low as £30, but you all guys are saying that this pixel issue shows up after some time of driving so even if s listing has a picture of plugged in and working cluster what guarantee is there that they are in full working order long term/drives.

BBA-Reman down in Rochester can repair dashboards with pixel issues, remove the dash and send it to them and they can normally turn it around in 2-3 days

Yeah, I'm well aware of them and other guys, but the issue here is the milage and clock screens (two little ones), and can't find replacements for sale.

Neil, can they do facelift D2s?
I've seen several people offering that service for the lower-resolution PF versions, but not the FL versions. I really need mine doing, not due to pixels but being blank when cold.

Ah ok, that's great then. It could be a much better solution for you guys if price is right especially if they fit new ones unless it's down to one faulty components not the actual screens which made me think now that this could be the actual cause and not the screens.

If it's only two little screens I would expect it to be lower as I am almost convinced that this fault is down more to a transistor not the actual displays. And if that's what it is than a diy solder job on component like that is very easy. Cost would be minima as well, time it takes not long either and don't need to send it away. Could possibly enquire about it and see if they will share some light on this issue and confirm the fix ... but whoever enquiries about can't sound like they know what they are talking about
