Tach and speedo Capacitor write up?
 
Every once in a while my tach just stays where its at, or refuses to read past 4k rpm. Also on cold days, my speedo will act weird for a few mins before reading normal. After searching it sounds like I may have bad capacitors on the tach and speedo.

Is there a good write up (preferably with pictures) on how to pull out the dash and replace those capacitors?

Everything I've found on here references fd3s.net or some site that's no longer around.

Would I have better luck in the 3rd Gen section? I'm sure quite a few people have done this, just trying to get some info so I dont break stuff :)

Perfect, Thanks!

Anyone done the speedo capacitors too? It looks like there are about 10 of them, just wondering if you replace all of them.
