Default --------> Tokico Illumina Dilema, if you own a set please chime in :D

Ok, so i tried adjusting my rear illuminas on my 5th gen, but the number dial spins and i dont know what setting the rears are set on.

basically i need to know in what direction will the arrow need to point for the stiffest setting (which i believe is 5?)

thanks for the help

I have a set on my lude and I have the little red thing in middle pointed with the arrow to the number. 5 is the "stiffest setting".

If the numbers/dial is properly seated, then it does not spin. You may need to find the proper seating and hold it in place while you change settings

it's pretty much impossible to find out for sure now lol. You can always just move it one notch, bounce it around, move it another notch, bounce it some more and see which one is stiffer. You'll find out which one is the stiffest because once you go past 5 it goes back to one so it will go from really stiff one round to super soft the next

Its going to be different on every car. There is a notch that holds the red cap in place, look for that and seat the dial. If the notch on the red car is broke, just line it up to where the notch used to be before it was broken.
