Need Help with dials

Hey,

Whilst my car is off the road im doing a few lil bits to it to make it stand out a little bit, this is the part where you guys come in, iv been looking on the net for a kit to make my speedo dials and all the others white but i cant seem to find any that dont look dodgy, any chance you could point me in the right direction for a white dial kit?

cheers

Kris

Tipex?? Sorry. No idea where to get white dials from tho, but i love the standard dials (sad i know)
Although have you tried Nengun or similar?

There\'s spirit r dials or mazdaspeed, best bet would be yahoo auctions.

Dunno how you define dodgy. The revs and speed from this link look okay in mine.

Thats a 99+ cluster with an RE-Amemiya speedometer.

FD3S Efini · June 03, 2009, 12:50:54 PM

so would i have to buy a new cluster or would i be able to just get the dial faces?

I had custom dials made for my rx7 and even had them with l.e.d backing. Mine are now silver with red and back lit with bright red l.e.d

My dad had some made as well his are black with veilside logo put into the design

You can have anything you want, any logo any colour what ever! Ill dig out the guys website and details if you like?

If you wanted the 99 spec dials like in the picture you would have to buy the complete cluster, you couldnt just take the dial faces off.

It would be pretty much plug and play only that where you have an oil pressure guage they were replaced with a boost one. Not a major problem as you can run a couple of wires from ecu to the back of the dial to output the boost onto the gauge.

Yahoo auctions japan are probably your best bet for getting a set like this. Mind you it probably wont be cheap.

Hope that helps a little?

Also a possibility you can get them from fdnewbieimports.com, got them quoted as $750 shipped, but that will be main land usa and not to uk.
