Xany Posted June 20, 2004 Report Posted June 20, 2004 (edited) i decided that i REALLY liked jamies idea of the white dash in his corolla, so i hope he doesnt mind me using his technique....also changed my tacho and took the old vacumn gauge out and replaced it with an oil pressure gauge..... but check this out...... old...... new.....hehehe mmmm dials.. anyone like?

escorpse Posted June 20, 2004 Report Posted June 20, 2004 something that i am considering doing, but dunno if i want to go white thou, is it easy to do?
Medicine_Man Posted June 20, 2004 Report Posted June 20, 2004 Looking nice, how do you keep all the lines / numbers the same colour and different to the background?
Xany Posted June 20, 2004 Author Report Posted June 20, 2004 using jamies techinque, as he told me and teddy at the all toyota day painting the white is easy.....but then by using cigarette filters and black paint dabbing the paint onto the raised numbers.....EASY! only took me about half a day to do..
Super Jamie Posted June 20, 2004 Report Posted June 20, 2004 that looks so sweet, especially with the white tacho and oil pressure gauge, well done!
Xany Posted June 20, 2004 Author Report Posted June 20, 2004 it's all thanks to you jamie.....thanks mate... :D i found out tonight when i turned my parkers and headlights on that because my gauges are white and my bulbs in the dash are coloured blue my guages are now green......hehehehe.....it looks so trick....however i may have to do something about the oil preesure gauge because its so bright..... also my tacho seems to be not working as well as my old one did...but i think i've figured it out now.... :)
Medicine_Man Posted June 20, 2004 Report Posted June 20, 2004 Pretty sure the KE70s don't have raised numbers on the speedo or tacho / clock :D
Teddy Posted June 20, 2004 Report Posted June 20, 2004 are all the connections clean? tacho faulty? wiring correct? thats all i can think of! Edit...spelling fairy
Teddy Posted June 20, 2004 Report Posted June 20, 2004 yeah, justin you're correct - they are flat as a tac :D Edit...spelling fairy
demuire Posted June 21, 2004 Report Posted June 21, 2004 Are you still using the cone-shaped lenses over the stock gauges? If so, what happened to the little black nipple on the ends of them? The "before" shot shows them, but the "after" shot doesn't have them...
