Tiger Posted June 17, 2005 Report Posted June 17, 2005 Alot of people put a custom logo or their plates on custom gauges faces. I'd have tiger print running through mine :D That's if I don't chose to go digital gauges :) Bring on the Autometer Cobalt Digital Series :P
Jason Posted June 17, 2005 Report Posted June 17, 2005 (edited) I think I'm gonna get rid of the Km/h and rev/min. Becuse it messes the whole clean look up. Ive to 2 shinny sheets left. :P I would love not to be able to put the odometer back in. But is that defectable? Edited June 17, 2005 by Jason
Jason Posted June 17, 2005 Report Posted June 17, 2005 (edited) Hmm o well. Here my new set Ill be able to sell them to a sprinter guy :P there the same Edited June 17, 2005 by Jason
demuire Posted June 17, 2005 Report Posted June 17, 2005 Maybe you can take the odometer apart and make little "ring" stickers to go over the numbers so that those can be white and pretty too! And might as well reset it all to 000000 while you're at it :P
demuire Posted June 17, 2005 Report Posted June 17, 2005 You could change the font and put like, big block text, that would be pretty funky. Or you could add a "0" after all the numbers so it looks like you're going really fast. Or, you could just have on your speedo: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 etc... and then at the bottom, in true tacho style, have "x10" :P I should stop having ideas.

And might as well reset it all to 000000 while you're at it :P surely it wouldn't be that hard to find a few white wheels for the odometer? Some speedos somewhere must have used them
Jason Posted June 17, 2005 Report Posted June 17, 2005 easer said then done. I'm looking at the spedo assembly now. Its all built in and tamper proof.
Xany Posted June 17, 2005 Report Posted June 17, 2005 (edited) the odometer doesn't make it look that bad....i don't have a scanner (dammit)....could i give some spare gauges to someone to scan for me? at the end of the tacho.... "Made In Japan" just before the "BOOM!"....hehehehe Edited June 17, 2005 by Xany
Ruts Posted June 17, 2005 Report Posted June 17, 2005 Simon are you home today - i'll drop in and grab them off you to scan for you - gimme a text - you know where to find my number - or drop them around my place - its only a few blocks away - well maybe 7 corners
Xany Posted June 18, 2005 Report Posted June 18, 2005 i'll be home tomorrow....gotta get ready to go out now, and i gotta find a spare set first....hehehe....thanks...you gunna be home tomorrow?...
Ruts Posted June 18, 2005 Report Posted June 18, 2005 Yup - home tomorrow - and its 9 corners to my place - just did a drive by and checked :P
Tiger Posted June 21, 2005 Report Posted June 21, 2005 (edited) Found my gauges for my dash :) The 3 digital gauges will sit in the console and the rest will be in the dash. 2 choices I have in mind for the background will be either a 2 pack Tiger Mica panel or brushed aluminium. I'm leaning more towards the Tiger Mica panel, as it isn't as common as the B/A option. Although, B/A does looks tough.. I'll see how I go. NO normally these gauges would cost a packet.. but it ain't what I know.. once again.. it's WHO I know that will make it more affordable. Not bad? Or too outrageous? Edited December 4, 2005 by Tiger
Teddy Posted June 21, 2005 Report Posted June 21, 2005 Yeah, Give me a needle on text any day. having the needle facing down past 12:00 always makes it feel like your going fast, even if your not :) - Speedo or tacho :D
Jason Posted June 21, 2005 Report Posted June 21, 2005 (edited) Looks cool, but everythings been done before :D *Jason thinks of cooler, more un-doable ideas * :D i want a HUD on the windscreen :) Edited June 21, 2005 by Jason
