downsman Posted March 6, 2008 Posted March 6, 2008 I've had our C1 for a few weeks now, and I'm really pleased with it. However, there was one thing that annoyed me. It's very difficult to tell what speed the fan is set to in the dark (without moving the knob anyway). I found this tip on another forum, and it's very easy to do. Just pull the knob off by gripping it with a rubber glove or something grippy, and drill a small (about 3mm) hole where the moulded dot is on the front. When you replace the knob some light will show through the hole when the lights are on :huh: Quote
ColinC1 Posted March 7, 2008 Posted March 7, 2008 Interesting, I did not know about it being a problem, but its a good solution. I always have mine on the 1st speed, unless a dimisting session is required. My only dissapointment with the ventalation system is that the base model Vibe (thats my model) does not come with the recirculation lever, so I get fumes from the lorries in front of me :huh: Quote

I thought I'd checked all the differences between Vibe and Rhythm :) Quote
Yoshi Posted June 13, 2008 Posted June 13, 2008 Ah, it's nice to know its possible...without breaking the whole dash as i feared i would somehow achieve.Was one of those problems you don't see in advance though, and very odd to find out when driving in the dark.Shall have to give the drilling a go! My other idea was to maybe just try n polish off the paint on the little dip where the arrow thing is. Anyway, shall have a look soon.Plus when i'm there i'll look for this screw that's meant to remove the dash so i can fit my new speakers! Unfortunate to hear they dont all come with a re-circ option though, i guess its just one of those things you take for granted... like 5 doors, light in boot, passenger light, glove box, temp gauge etc... But we still love the C1!!! :unsure: Quote
