I'm sure Jim and Craig McCluskey (who actually did this to his car) could
help us with this. If I'm understanding correctly, the foil is to line the
pipes between the light bulbs and the instruments in the cluster so that the
light can be reflected more efficiently. I hope that it's not too ha
Nevermind, I just remembered what the foil treatment is.

Hey Jim,
I'm not privy to the aluminum foil treatment for the rheostat. I have known
for a long while now that I need to bypass my stupid dimmer in the dash of
our 240D, as we have no dash lights, but they occasionally come on dimly and
it is affected by touching the dimmer dial. But aluminum foil?
