![]() As usual, I am never happy and been fiddling and adjusting
Made a new dashboard setup due to changes in fog light switch and slight clearance issues (wanted a bit more knee/leg room in passenger footwell) Still got to fettle a couple of littke bits but 95% happy with this one ![]() IMAG0037.jpg The top of the transmission tunnel will be foam and black leatherette and the same grey on the sides to contrast Russ Last edited by rpjg1975 : 20th July 2013 at 06:46 PM. |

![]() Very nice, gives the dash a really nice look to it.
Probably makes the dials easier to see too, rather than stuffed behind the steering wheel? |

![]() Cheers, yeah it does, you lose the top end of the rev counter with standard sierra steering wheel but can't see me spending too much time above 5000 rpm or so

![]() I've got similar issues seeing my clocks and thinking I might just fit a nice big shift light behind my wheel. |

![]() Very true, probably not the most important thing to be watching

![]() I'm thinking about a foray into Arduino electronics, a DIY shift light with some unreasonably bright LEDs right in the field of view behind the steering wheel or inside the aeroscreen recess.

![]() Arfon,
Thanks very much. By all means, they are from a company online called greengauges. Custom designed with whatever bezel, dial colour, needle colour etc you want. I actually got mine second hand, as new for less than the price of the Speedo! They aren't cheap but can vouch for the quality Russ |

![]() I have just spoken to ETB and they are now prepared to supply me a set of mechanical gauges at the original price, I would prefer mechanical to electrical as I am not that good with programing instruments they will take up to 2 weeks to sort.
thanks for your reply Arfon |
